Yesterday in my last Nutrition class they were talking about hair loss after surgery. My hair is one of my best assets and I have to say I am a tad freaked out about it thinning or losing it.

Is it temporary? Any solutions to prevent?

Thanks

Hi, This was one of my biggest fears. I have very thin and very fine hair to begin with so I had visions of myself as a skin head(G) I was diligent with my protein took biotin, B complex and used Nioxin shampoo and conditioner stage 4 "for visibly thinning colored hair". If I lost any it wasn't noticeable and I am 9 months out now.

Now that is really encouraging! My hair is also very thin and fine. Thanks!

My hair started falling out a few weeks ago (around 3 months). I figured it was coming but was worried about cutting it into a better style because the thought of removing more hair on my own seemed crazy! But, I went yesterday and got a more 'shaggy' cut so the layers are shorter. It has seemed to slow down after the first two weeks also. I take my vitamins each day - think my body is just in shock as some of you have noted. Hoping it will continue to slow down and level off soon. My nutritionist said it's common but she's never seen anyone lose all their hair...
