  1. I knew that around 3 months I would start to have hair loss, but I'm shedding more than my 2 cats and large dog combined.

      My VSG was on 12/15/14. When does the hair falling out stop? My hair is so thin now, it's been about a month, almost two that it's been coming out a lot! My PA told me I'm losing so much hair because I'm not eating enough protein. I feel I am though.

      while my hair was falling out I took biotin and washed my hair with suave Moroccan shiny hair product. as my hair fell out it at least looked healthy.

      My hair has been falling out since week 8 and I am 7.5 months post op. I immediately started Biotin. Biotin helps with regrowth very well. It does not stop your hair from falling out. I have had several doctors tell me when the weight loss slows down/stops my hair will stop falling out. I am now 49lbs from goal. In my fifth month the hair loss became even more agressive. The good news is I have lots of new hair coming in.

      I have also had all my labs pulled and I am getting plenty of protein and iron. This is all about the rapid weight loss.
