My hair started falling out a little after I reached my 3rd month post-op. Does anyone know how long this will last?? I am afraid I will go bald , but I would do the surgery again.

It appears to be starting to happen with me....I hear it doesn't last more than a month or 2.  So I just have to decide....skinny or bald?  I'll go with the temporary "baldness:

I am like you I would rather be skinny at least you can buy a wig to hide your head if it came down to it but you can't hide fat and unhealthy.

I have noticed more in my hairbrush lately but not too bad yet. I take Biotin everyday to replenish the hair loss and notice several new hair growth coming in.

Isn't it amazing what we will go thru to be thin? I would rather be bald too!!!

I usually get it at Wal-mart but I am sure you could find it anywhere.

Hi,
I think this is a normal side effect. My wife is going through the same problem her hair is falling out in hand fulls even when she brushes it. I've been told it will stop eventually.

Thats what mine is doing, hand fulls and when I get out of the shower I have to clean out the drainer screen but today there was less in there so maybe it is about to stop. I hope it stops soon for all of us.
