Nothing will prevent hair loss. Some people lose hair, some don't. You won't go bald and keep in mind as your hair is falling out new hair is also growing in. My hair got pretty thin and it now back to being the thick hair it once was. Be sure to use a strengthening shampoo/conditioner otherwise it's a waiting game. No amount of Protein, Biotin, or some other medication is going to stop your hair from falling out as hair loss is generally caused by surgery, trauma of surgery, anesthesia, and weight-loss.

Good luck.

I am 11 months out and my hair is just now falling out im not getting enough protein so I bought the protein powder

Protein (but not in excess), biotin (sublingual pill works), and trying to stay stress free.

Yea, mine has started to fall out. Not too worried, just worried about my shower drain haha laugh.gif

So really nothing can be done? hmm

Not really, nope. It's all part of the cycle. Once your hair is falling out it's falling out, but it's also growing back. I was eating a good 100g+ Protein when mine was falling out and it didn't help. Just have to wait it out.
