How long does hair loss last?



Recommended Posts

I will be 5 months and started my Hair loss at 3 1/2 to 4 month out but holly hairloss. I have already cut my hair shorter,but still tons and tons gone everyday thinning out big time. I take my Vitamins, i can't take Biotin since I have typhoid issue. Just would like to know how loss did you experience the hair loss? I do you know something that really works?

I am 13 months out from vsg and I still have a little bit of Hair loss, but no where near as bad as it was between months 4-7. Mine has started growing back and I have baby hairs now, and I just found out I was pregnant so I will experience hair loss again after I have my baby :( it will get better but everyone is different, just keep up on Protein, Water and vitamins!

Well Telogen Effluvium is complex and not one size fits all. Do a bit of research if you have not already

Ah the $64,000.00 question my friend. We ALL want to know how long hair loss lasts! LOL.

(And btw, sorry bout the typhoid. The good news is you'll prolly be dead before you go completely bald.)

My hair was thinning before hand, so my Hair loss was pretty brutal. I was taking 10,000 U of Biotin and also lysine. I started getting Iron infusions and I think being anemic was part of my hair loss. It started at 3 months and by 4-5 months it was bad. BAAAAADDD. I cut my hair short and do sort of a comb over from the back (very subtle). When I went in at 6 months for a cut, my hair dresser said I had lots of baby hairs. I will never have the hair I did when I was 18, but that’s ok. Look up tellogum effluvium. When the hairs fall out it’s because new ones are coming in.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
