unique0782 30 Posted April 30, 2016 I am six months post op and my hair is falling out terrible. They said its common but I didn't find out until after my surgery. I am devastated. Is there anyone else having this problem? Overall the surgery was a success minus a few complications and my hair loss..

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted April 30, 2016 It's due to a combination of the shock of the surgery/anesthesia and lack of Protein. hair loss is temporary. Just make sure you are taking your Vitamins and getting in all of your Protein and it will grow back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngelBMR 2 Posted April 30, 2016 The same thing happened to me 5 months post op so I've been taking Biotin and hair and nail gummies every day since and it has helped a lot. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BJames42613 41 Posted May 1, 2016 To get the maximum out of your Biotin, you need to take it conjunction with keratin. Keratin helps boost your Biotin and strengthen your hair. Target sells an excellent biotin with keratin supplement. It's Up & Up brand. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
