Hair loss....I'm going bald ....lol

ok so I am almost 14 months out and my hair is still falling out....omg when does it stop.....bad thing is my hair was fine and thin before surgery....I thought I could handle it...but I also thought it would have quit coming out by now. thought this process was temporary. any suggestions?

was 308....now 192....woohoo!

First of all, congrats on your significant success. You've done a great job getting the excess weight off and I'll bet that your health and quality of life have improved beyond expectations.

Regarding the continued hair loss, I think you are right that it is unusual for the loss to continue this long. If you haven't met with your Dr. lately, I'd schedule an appointment. I'd also want to have labs done to see if there were any deficiencies that might account for the loss. Not just in protein, but I'm also wondering about vitamins B and any others that might contribute to healthy hair growth. 

I'm sorry that I don't know any more and wish you all the best as you continue your journey. Please do let us know what you find out. 

Warmly,

My hair too has been falling out for the last month.  Right now I am not real concerned, but I can see why you are.  I agree with getting labs.  I have also been taking an antidepressant, which I have stopped taking because it began to make my throat swell, but I also looked up additional side effects, and hair loss was one with lots of women.  I would suggest researching any and all meds that you are currently taking to see if that may be adding to the hair loss problem.

I was having the same problem and still have slightly thinning but not as much..I started taking Biotin,Flaxseed oil and Vitamin E and it has greatly improved..maybe this will help..I'm not a Dr. or anything but someone suggested it to me and it has helped..
