Hair loss anyone?

Hi, I am scheduled for surgery on the 31st. I just wanted to know if anyone has experienced hair loss and what has helped. My hair is already short and thin and I am little concerned. Thanks, Ana

it will come out around the 3rd or 4th month after surgery ,,,its due to the protiene u will be fine it doesnt come out to much mine is coming out somewhat but not bad ,,,,get some hair thicking gel it will make your hair look thicker ...good luck hon Bev

My hair loss and breakage was terrible. I had to resort to wigs, and weaves, but at 10 months its coming back...but I hate that in between phase.

My hair was normally thin. It "thinned out" but didn't fall out. Stick to lots of protein & water. It will grow back. Aliya, haven't seen you in awhile...you look WONDERFUL!!! Amy

Hey Amy,, Its been a long time! Thanks so much! I feel great!

Now here is a topic everyone has a different oppinion on.. Protein I believe is partially to blame but mostly it is caused by stress. Your body will react to stress differently everytime.. but I truly believe it is stress and anitesia (cannot spell ... too early). Nothing really works but time. Good luck and have a safe journey.

Hi Ana, I had my surgery 3/30/05. I did have hair loss/thinning between 5-7 mos out. I upped my protein and took a supplement for hair, skin, & nails with biotin in it. Although everyone worries about this, it is temporary. I did get a shorter haircut, whiched helped me and now my hair has grown back fuller than before. Good luck with your journey!

Hi my name id Diana and Im about 4 months post-op. My hairs is coming out alot and I was starting to worry. I know it is to be expected but all my life i have been known to have beautiful hair. That was the only thing I could ever count on getting a compliment on. I have had alot of problems tollerating protein shakes, drinks, bars etc... It's not noticeable to anyone, but myself though. any suggestions??

It's been 4 months since I had my surgery my hair started thinning badly in the 3rd month I'm taking biotin 2500 mg for skin hair and nails. I got me a really chic short hair cut it's very becoming it goes with my shrinking body(LOL)..... So if it's still thinning it's not noticable I suggest that u take your vitamins and also get some biotin from GNC and find yourself a great hairdresser who can cut hair. It will grow back I was worried too at first but the weight loss is wonderful I'm down from 289lbs to 210lbs...
