Hi Ladies,

Just wondering if anyone that has PCOS has hair loss before surgery? I am preop and already super thin up to[. I am taking Biotin and using Nioxin.

I know with wls you can lose hair but it usually grows back...curious if you had hair thining prior to surgery did your hair start filling in after you lost

weight and hormones evened out?

What do you do to cover up your thin hair? I am so embarassed cause its very noticeable.

I'm wondering this too - I have thin hair on top already and I am moving into my 3rd month post surgery. I haven't had any hair loss from the surgery as of yet but I'm expecting some. I think for the winter I'll wear hats if I have to... lol ... not sure how it will be but I am nervous about it!

I'm also in my third month and was thin on top. I am losing a bit and I sure do hope it grows back otherwise I am going to look like I have some kind of problem....maybe I"m just gonna cut it off.

Thankfully I still have not had any hair loss. I got a cut today to give it some body and I do notice that it seems a bit fuller than before - maybe because of all of the vitamins. It seems inevitable that some is going to fall out in the future but I am really hoping that I might be one of those few that don't lose more. I'll be bald on top for sure if I do!

Nope, no hair loss pre-sleeve. I have a bad case of PCOs-related hirsutism (excessive hair on the neck, face, arms and abdomen), I am praying for some serious hair loss in those areas.
