I suffered hair loss when I was four months out as well. The only vitamins I took were the four chewables w/iron a day. When I discovered my hair was coming out I used an uncooked scrambled egg with my conditioner and left it in for mins. My hair loss was over within a months time. I got a full head of hair as I write... I am 16 1/2 months out and look like Luducris big sister when he had all that hair on his head! (smile) OH

The two Vitamins I started using before my surgery and thus every day since are Biotin 1000 - 5000 mg plus Zinc but no more than 50 mg as Zinc can burn the insides of your pouch. But these two together with Increasing your Protein intake to at least 80 grams a day woll start new growth. Which will also include your Nails. I'm 9 months ot and haven't lost any hair.

This product is ok, BUT it is not a complete protein by itself. If you are getting your other protein with whey, this would be a nice addition, not a substitute. You might see the difference in your skin and nails more than hair, since you are at that magic 4-6 months hair loss time. You can ALWAYS add protein! I do 5 whey shakes a day (or more) and 1 serving of collagen a day and have for many years now.

Biotin is great - the supplement you are referring to, never tried- could help- when I lost alot of hair I reread my instructions which were to increase my protein to over 90 grams aday. It helped the most. I use isopure which is 40 grams a drink in friut flavors and I add them to my diet teas etc. that match flavors and drink throughout day so I don't get too much protein at any one time. Good luck
