Hair loss is normal! When it happened to me- about 5 months post op I went to the dermatologist. He said it was from rapid weightloss- your body goes into kind of a shock. He assured me I wouldn't go bald. I was lucky to start with a thick head of hair. It should stop in a few months. Try not to worry.

Very normal! In fact I am 3 and half months out of surgery and my hair is now really starting to fall out. As you can see from my picture I have thin hair to begin with. I have been taking doses of Biotin gel cap pills daily and treating my hair with Paul Mitchell strong strength hair treatments so that my hair can stay strong, preventing more hair breakage. Every little bit helps, even if you don't believe. I am a woman and will do whatever it takes to slow down this process or try and prevent my hair from breaking off more than it has.

You can find Biotin gel caps at any Walmart, CVS, GNC, Rite Aid, drug store, and grocery stores.... The gel caps are super super tiny!

They say It is very common to experience Hair loss after surgery, although they do not know if it’s the surgery itself or the anesthesia that causes it, but normally you will start noticing a loss 2 to 3 months after a surgery, they say as scary as it is, you will not go bald but in the 3-4 months it can get pretty thin, that after the 4th month new hair is coming in and that its just pushing the old hair out and this whole process can take up to a year to resolve. Which was exactly what happen to me I never took any additional Biotin just my standard gummy vitamins and morning Protein Powder coffee, sure is freakie after the bath Water has drained and the tub is covered. :o

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
