Nutrafol - Hair Growth Vitamin w/ Saw Palmetto



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried Nutrafol hair Vitamins after getting the sleeve? I received a list of medications not to take 2 weeks before my sleeve which included Saw Palmetto in it because I guess it can cause bleeding? It was listed in the same category as Advil and Aspirin. I'm just wondering if anyone has taken these post surgery and seeing any results. My dietician wasn't sure so I don't know if it was just not to be taken before surgery but okay after.

Doesn't look like anyone has, but you can try a forum search on the word nutrafol you may find some old posts. Search field is on the top left hand side of the screen. Good luck

Sent this to my Doctor Friend - I was losing my hair pre op but wanted to search, They are rough on the tummy and it appears to not be a good choice for us little stomach club members, Doing more research cuz Vitamins and minerals and supplements are my thing. Thanx for the information will keep you informed.

I've never heard of this supplement, but just so you know, most treatments don't really do squat. If you're going to lose hair, you're going to lose hair. It's temporary, though - and most of us don't lose it to the point where other people even notice.

Can you ask your dr friend about viviscal? I have a few bodybuilder friends who use gear and makes them lose hair. They swear viviscal helps and was hoping to take it if I encountered Hair loss

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
