I would definitely tell your doctor! From everyrthing I've read and health professionals I've talked to, hair loss is from a loss of protein, isn't it? Either way, your doc should be able to help you! I'm excited about moving forward in this process!! I'm hoping for a date in June! Nice to 'meet' you! Marie

hello Congrats on your weight loss. I am 5 months out tomorrow and have recently started w/ the hair loss as well. From what I understand the biggest reason is basically the trauma of surgery, yes make sure you are getting in all your protein as that is important but there is really nothng we can do. I started taking Biotin which will help minimize hair loss and help w/ the regrowth. You can certainly talk to your surgeon and let them know but there isn't much that can be done. Good luck Gwen
