I used to have lots and lots of dandruff for 4-5 years, and nothing helped. I used to wash my hair and 30 mins later, when I combed it, I could see the little white pieces of dead skin falling off it already. 6 weeks post-op and it's 100% solved, no more dandruff.

I've no idea what was cause, and I'm not sure if it's PCOs-related and whether the change of food following the surgery helped, but I'm quite thankful.

(Still waiting for regular menses and less facial/neck hair, doesn't look like either will happen any time soon).

I've never heard of PCOS causing dandruff, but it's cool that yours is gone! I have PCOS too, and bad enough dandruff that not even industrial strength Head and Shoulders would help , so you give me hope that mine will go away, or at least lessen!

Congrats to you!

(I, too, wish the regular TOMs and less facial hair would get here sooner rather than later )

I lost 20 plus pound during pre-op and by the time I had surgery my periods were regular and they have come every single month since. Less facial hair even taking a supplement for my hair loss. Started to really notice a difference around 5 months. I havent heard of the dandruff either but I wouldnt be surprised....I consider myself cured of PCOS...a wonderful benifit of the sleeve.
