It's different for everyone. My Hair loss only lasted about a month and a half (from 3.5 months out to 5 months out) and then it started growing back immediately. Some people lose longer and more.... some people don't lose any. Take your Vitamins, get your Protein in, drink your Water, and hope for the best!

Mine was like @JamieLogical. I spent a lot on all the things to prevent it and met my Protein goals every single day from day 2 of surgery. Nothing stopped it.

At 9 months my hair is growing back very rapidly. It sucked but its over and I don't even care now.

Zinc tablets?

I am 13 weeks post op. My wife told me she thinks my hair looks thinner this week. An amazing feat as I have very fine hair. Obviously I am worried - so I guess I will lose it even faster!
