My Hair is Falling!!!

I have to do this with a sense of humor... as I am really not happy about the increased amounts of hair I am seeing int he shower drain every morning... maybe I can scoop it up, save it and staple it back to my skull... My hair is baby fine to start with... I have already cut my hair shorter... and that made it look a bit better I am getting in about 80+ grams of protien, 80+ oz of water... talking all of my vitamins and supplements... and Biotin... also have been using NIOXIN products since the weeks prior to surgery... I don't know of anything else I can possibly do I guess I have to just face the facts that I am going thin in the attic... I was ready to face baldness a few years back with a breast cancer scare... (the surgery to remove a baseball size lump was successful.... and the tumor was benign THANK GOD!) anything to live... so... if I have to face hair loss for a year or so... it is worth it... I know I will have a MUCH longer life with the weight loss!!! hey... maybe I will actaully go back to my natural hair color.... whatever that was.... Thanks for letting me vent~~ Deb @ Indian Lake

Deb, I had my surgery on Dec. 16, 2004. On Easter Sunday my hair was all of a sudden coming out in handfulls. Like you my hair is thin, very very thin! It always has been since I had kids 37 years ago. Last week I noticed that no more falling hair!! I now am noticing a few whispey hairs. It is so nice!!!! So it probably will fall out but not forever (((Hugs))) Judy 271/180/125

Deb, My hair fell out to at about 4 months out. It was in clumps. But dont worry it will stop and come back in. Pattie

10 months and no signs of new hair growth.Oh well,fat and bald is good

I also has this problem, I had very thick hair, always took 2 perms-2 boxes of coloring. Now it is so thin, but at the 6 month mark, I had a hair cut and they could show me the baby hair coming back in. Its stressful to see all that hair going down the drain. Its coming back now.
