Has anyone experience thining hair?



Recommended Posts

I am right now.... I always seem to loose hair after having anesthesia. I had surgery in November and again last month.... It's an embarrassing thing, but there doesn't seem to be much I can do about it.

I am taking Biotin. Which helps with Hair loss after sleeve surgery. My hair is not falling out. Even my legs are hairier lately .. :). Now I have to shave my legs again.

I've been shedding and have started using a Shampoo called CLEAR. I also make sure to take my Multivitamin it seems to have slowed the hair from shedding so much. I've also heard Biotin works.

Most of us have lost hair. Many posts here. Buy a wig, cut your hair; rather have thin hair and be thin lol!!!

i am a hairdresser, and Biotin is a good supplement to take to help with hair growth. ive also been experiencing Hair loss after surgery, luckily i was blessed with a thick head of hair, so its not very noticable to other people. my only other suggestion would be to make sure youre getting in your recommended daily amount of Protein, since our hair is made up of about 90% protein!

Problem is the NUT says you are eating too much Protein (me). hair now coming out at 5+ months. So the Biotin has not helped my hair or my nails LOl but I am coping with it all. It might be worse without the Biotin? I could care less, I feel great. There are great wigs if it gets worse.

It's not about the amount of Protein it's about the type and usage and the ingredients. My dr. Provided me with corner stone Protein Shake and that extremely helped me with Hair loss. You should ck out their website and contact them if you want. Slimlifesolutions.com

I had a problem with thinning hair before. I started using Biotin and a hair treatment called redken intraforce. It seems to be helping a lot. I actually have a lot of my clients using it and they say they same thing that their hair feels fuller.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
