When did you start losing hair?



Recommended Posts

Im six months out today. Mine started at about 4 months. I clean my brush out everyday. I am going to get a lob on Friday so my long hair doesnt start to look stringy. Hopefully it will stop soon and i can start letting it grow out again.

I’m finding that it started about 3.5 months after surgery. I was sleeved on April 18, 2018, luckily I have thick hair but it is disturbing to me.

I also think it falls into our genetic make up.

I was losing significant hair up until I started my Biotin regimen, it came from a combination of my thyroids and uterine fibroids then add the wrong nutrition value and you're a recipe for disaster.

Fibroids can cause Hair loss? ?????!!!!

Mine really seemed to be between m4 and m5. I did chop it all short though, so maybe it's still tailing off.

Mine started about three months after. I worried so much especially when it was falling out. Don’t stress, it will fall out and thin but then starts to shoot right back. Take your Vitamins, eat Protein, don’t brush your hair when it’s wet and take liquid silica and liquid Biotin starting now and just keep taking it even when your hair stops falling out. Don’t worry ❤️

collagen is a good supplement, too. I’m trying to head off the Hair loss possibility by taking 10,000 of Biotin, and using a collagen Protein powder! I’ll be sure to continue taking after I’ve had my surgery, plus maxing out on as much protein as I can. I hope not to lose any hair, but just in case I’m being proactive. I’m using Dose & Co vanilla collagen Protein Powder, ... but there are others out there. It can’t hurt.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
