I was sleeved back on 10/13/10 and am down 86 pounds and doing great. Joined the gym and enjoying working out now that I have energy. But, I've noticed in the last month or so that my hair is thinning. I find it in the shower, on the bathroom counter and I have to clean the brush out two or three times while styling in the morning. Before surgery my hair was thin but it wasn't falling out or this thin. I know hair needs protein to grow but as most of you know after being sleeved it's hard to get in the amount of protein or even the fluids you need to stay hydrated. But, back on the topic of protein.. I still drink one protein shake for breakfast and I drink of something called a "protein shot" you can get a the Vitamin Shop", which has 42g of protein for a 4oz bottle. So, I think now and within the last two weeks I've been getting the 70g of protein my doctor wants me to get... now my question is will the hair start to regrow once I maintain the daily protein levels? I also have hypothyroidism which can also cause hair loss... double wammy. I haven't see my doctor since the middle of December but i do have my four month check up next week and I'll find out more from him on this hair loss/thinning issue. I am taking Biotein daily but I don't think it's enough. I also have an appointment with my thyroid doctor in two weeks so maybe my thyroid levels are off again. I did not see "you'll go bald" from getting sleeved when I was going through the pre process. Anyone else experiencing the same issues with their hair and if so what did you do? HELP!!!
