That does seem to be a problem with fast weight loss. You'll probably hear from a number of people. My Dr. suggested making sure you take a good Multivitamin, eating at least 75 grams of Protein a day, and using Nioxin shampoo.

Good luck to you.

Biotin and prenatal vitamins have assisted with slowing my hair loss down. I am happy with the results.

Talk to your nut and surgeon. When I told mine he put me on several Vitamins specifically for hair loss. He said that your hair goes through a seven month cycle. I took the vitamins for three months and the hair loss stopped and started regrowing. I am 16 months post op now and my hair is back to normal.

It was a rough Vitamin routine as you took something different every two hours during the day. If your doctor does not have this you can PM me and I will be glad to type it up for you!

I am still on Biotin, multi vitamin and Calcium.

Happen to me too!!! It finally slowed down at about 7 month mark. But I just had abdominalplasty 10 days ago and its falling out again. For me, it must be more of the stress on the body than anything to do with food. My diet has stayed the same over these last couple of weeks.

what's the Nioxin shampoo got to do with it and what kind? I know you said Nioxin brand. I take 5000 in Biotin and yes I'm bad about forgetting my multi because it upsets my stomach so I forget to take it. I know I don't get nearly the amount of grams in protein as you mentioned. Just got my hair color/cut/styled Friday and my stylist could tell it was thinned out from 7 weeks ago, she couldn't believe it.

The Nioxin didn't help me and is very expensive.

I've been dealing with hair loss before.When i tried using Reloxe I had heard about it's ability to naturally grow back hair and it worked within only a few months!
