HELP !! I AM GOING BALD. LOOK AT MY BALD PICS, WHAT DO I DO?
Go to the doctor and get a physical. Biotin and all of those products DO NOT correct hair loss. You will lose hair because your body is nutritionally unbalanced. If you had RNY make sure that not only are you getting in your protein but the correct balance of supplements. Hair loss will occur until your body is in balance but will grow back.
Speak to your Surgeon or PCP. Unless you specifically have them looking, they only worry that your levels fall within acceptable or low ranges. You need to know if something is on the higher or lower spectrum. My hair got crazy thin w/ bald areas so I moved to wigs and weaves. I got my system under control as suggested by my PCP and it grew back in and thickened back up.

I am emailing my doctor as soon as I finish typing this. Did you have to use anything for it to thicken up or did it just do it on it's own. I don't wear wigs or weaves I just don't have the patience for all that stuff.
How did you get your system under control, vitamins???

I knew the biotin stuff didn't work so I didn't bother w/ it. I kept my hair well oiled w/ olive oil and Dr. Miracle products and protein deep conditioned my hair weekly so that it would get healthy and strong. Other than that I just worked hard at taking my supplements, protein and attempting to eat a balanced diet. Slowly as the doctor predicted my hair started to fuzz back in then grow.
I agree with Miz D my hair was falling out went to the Dr. come to find out that my ferritin and iron was low many people don't realized that if you are deficient in these areas your body will take these nutrients from everything including your hair . once I got some iron infusions and go my levels in check my hair started to grow back.
