How much Biotin do you take?

I was taking 5000/day... and was getting all sorts of excess facial hair (yet I noticed no significant improvement in my fingernails!)... so it really depends on the person.  1000/day seemed to slow down the facial hair growth, but did not seem to do anything to help my hair grow any faster.

I have taken Biotin (5000mcg) before and after surgery. It was really helpful in growing stronger hair and I am sure it will keep me looking just as great!!! I think you will do fine with Biotin.

I've been taking 7,500 mcg a day for the last few months even prior to surgery. It helped to thicken my hair before it started falling out. That started about 2 weeks ago. Love my fast growing nails, though! 

Thank you everyone for your input!  Have a great day!
