lipstix64 1 Posted March 18, 2009 -OK- HERE IT GOES. I SPOKE TO DOCTORS AND NUTRITIONISTS AND IT SDOESNT MATTER IF YOU GET ALL YOUR Protein, VITIAMINS, MINERALS, Biotin OR ANYTHING ELSE YOU'RE TAKING. IT WILL NOT HELP. YOUR BODY HAS BEEN TRAUMATIZED WITH SURGERY AND UNTIL YOUR YOUR HORMONE LEVELS GET BACK TO NORMAL, THERE IS NO PILL OR SUPPLEMENT THAT WILL HELP. jUST KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOING, MAYBE TAKE Biotin , THATS WHAT i TAKE. ITS ONLY TEMPORARY AND YOUR ARE RIGHT AT THE MARK WHERE hair LOSS HAPPENS. JUST BE GLAD IT GROWS BACK, BUT THAT TAKES TIME. ITS FREAKING ME OUT TOO. I ALREADY HAD FINE hair. BUT AS LONG AS IT GROWS BACK, I"LL BE OKAY- YOU WILL TOO.

olivia_99 0 Posted March 18, 2009 hello there.. I would speak to your doctor about the hair loss because that sounds strange..i have had the lap band for some time now..i have hair breakage and thats because I use alot of hair styling products like hairspray...Maybe its the weather..sometimes when seasons change hair shreds? maybe try www.webmd.com or wikipedia.org and key word search hair loss..maybe its ur body adjusting to the changes ur making..Hope this helps..God Bless.!

mikesangelonly 0 Posted March 18, 2009 This is very hard for me, I have waist length hair, have always had long hair and now it's just coming out, it may not seem like that should be so worrisome but oh my is it. I hope we all get through these obstacles without too much difficulty. I am just stressed. Thanks for answering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andrea11 0 Posted March 18, 2009 I too was banded in November and have experienced Hair loss. It also concerned me for it was at its worse in January/February. It is now fallling out less..just wanted to let you know that it does eventually slow down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lacasst 1 Posted March 19, 2009 I too had surgery in November and my hair is falling out too! I had thin hair to begin with so it's definitely worse.I'm taking Biotin & even bought the Nioxin brand Shampoo & conditioner & scalp treatment but it has a gross medicene smell and makes my hair feel dry! So I dont know.......stinky hair or no hair! LOL ! At least they say it's suppose to grow back.....cant wait!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
