Biotin - Amount I Am Taking

I've been trying to catch up on the posts that I missed and I remember one about Biotin and hair loss. My surgeon recommended that I take two 1500mg tablets a day. My hair has definitely thinned but fortunately I had alot to begin with. If you didn't know me before surgery you wouldn't notice hair loss or thinning. The two tablets might seem like alot but don't forget there is malabsorption. Also thanks to the person who advised me not to take my vitamins WITH my calcium! I asked me surgeon and he told me the same thing, so now I spread them out. Have a great day! Hugs, Sandy

I take 5000 mg of Biotin once per day and have for the last 3 months. Like you, I had very thick hair to start, so the thinnning is not so noticable, thank goodness.
