    I had some Hair loss but Took Biotin, and collagen, & Vitamin E, That Should Do The Trick!!!

    I've had major Hair loss but I just started tracking my Protein and I'm not getting enough. Upping my protein now so hopefully this will help also take Biotin but that just promotes Hair growth like making it longer. But I and my stylist really see a major difference, it's so thin now, I hate it but its my fault for not getting my protein in.

    While there's no guarantee anything will prevent or help hair loss, sometimes the right nutrition and supplements can help.
    Not only will weight loss cause Hair loss but so can surgery. In the past, I'd always had thinning hair after being under anesthetic. This is actually very common.
    I started taking Biotin a year ago. I had two surgeries in less than a month this spring and have had zero hair loss. I firmly believe the fact I was already on Biotin before the surgeries, and eat a healthy diet, is the reason I didn't lose any hair.

    I noticed Hair loss. I take Vitamins, Biotin etcetc Although it will not prevent hair loss it will support Hair growth

    Agree 100%!! My hair loss really caught me off guard and freaked me out, but happily it has mostly grown back (but given me natural layers). Nothing I did prevented or helped it. I think it's just a natural process that you have to ride out. I think I easily lost half of my hair, but no one ever noticed. You won't lose it all though, so no worries there.

    Extreme weight loss is the cause of Hair loss, not a particular weight loss surgery. So yes, there's hair loss. There are ways to try and prevent it as much as possible such as Vitamins, Biotin, and high Protein intake, but hair loss is the body's natural way of defending itself when it thinks it is starving.

    The week of recovery post surgery I felt terrible. I have never felt so uncomfortable and worried whether I did the right thing. Fortunately, heading out for a walk took my kind off it for a while, and I'm happy to say post recovery and 3 kgs away from my goal weight within 12 months I don't regret it at all.
    Best wishes for your recovery. You can do it

    "Buyers Remorse"....it's very common to hear those same emotions/feelings on here shortly after surgery. I asked myself those same questions, almost 4 years and 125 pounds ago....
    Kinda like after you make a large investment (maybe a car) in anything. You ask yourself, "did I make the right decision/purchase?" What if I can't afford (do) this? What if it's a lemon ( doesn't work for me )? Could I have just walked to my destination and not needed that new car (surgery)? Maybe its a stickshift and I'll have to learn how to drive it ( adjust to this new life )? Lots of emotions may cross your mind....as they did mine.
    But then after some period of time, you get used to driving that new car (banded life) and you enjoy it! And wonder why didn't I get me some new wheels ( do this ) sooner! It may not be easy to feel this right now....but you will, just NEVER, EVER GIVE UP on what those goals you have for yourself are. Best wishes.
