Nope....although some people say my hair looks like it is thinning...I don't know, I don't see it, and I haven't noticed hair in the bottom of the shower or coming off on my brush, so I guess no for me..

I barely lost any hair... from months 3 to 5 I lost "more than normal" Month 6 the loss slowered even further and after that was gone. Tips... get your protein in EVERY day. You may also want to take Biotin... talk to your surgeon about it. Only other tip... be patient... over time it will improve!

My hair thinned out A WHOLE LOT......Once I got it cut it looked much better but I was really upset for awhile.....mine started comng out at 2 months and stopped around 5 months out...everyone is different so you may see something completely different

Yes, yes, yes! My hair fell out a lot during months 3 and 4. I got it cut short and began using a shampoo and conditioner from Sally's (it starts with an N). It got better in looks and feeling around month 6. Holli

Ugh...my hair started falling out at about 4 months and is still coming out at 9 months:(. I checked into getting extensions, but in northern VA they start at about $1200 and last about 4 months; instead I bought Nioxin(special shampoo) and waiting it out. I have it cut in a short bob and you can start to see regrowth...thank god! Now with all of that said..would I rather be fat with great hair?! NO!!!

I second that! I've been going thru this hair loss since about 3 months out, I'm 5 months now & it's still falling out pretty bad! I use Nioxin too, but I'm ready to cut it in a short bob style too! I love your cut!

Oh yes its been falling out like crazy. Luckily I have really thick hair. I have been taking alot of biotin using a shampoo and cond called Jasons, drinking plenty of water, getting between 80-100 grams protein per day. Theres not much we can do, but these things can help. (so Ive heard)
