S there anyone who DIDN'T have excessive hair loss?

I was sure this was not going to happen to me since I have had such an easy time of it..then came month 4, lol. I do have long hair and I started taking Biotin right after my surgery. My hair loss is not noticeable to anyone but me, but I do notice! I have to clean out my hairbrush about every other day. It really needs to be colored too but I'm afraid to stress it out at all. I'm just trying to be gentle with it, get my protein, take my vitamins and wait it out. I'm down 51lbs so i will deal with it.

I'm 5 mo post op, like everyone else I started losing my hair about 4 months. It sucks but ice lost 80 pounds since march, I'll take it

my hair has fallen iut excessively but i think it slowed down a little but ive lost so much that its still very thin. it needs to hurry & grow

I'm almost 4 months post-op and am definately losing hair. It's a good thing it got so thick with vitamins before surgery or I might be bald very soon. A friend who also had surgery a few yrs ago told me to take Biotin, Lysine, Zinc, Flax Seed Oil and mega doses of B12 for the hair loss. That's a lot to add to my already large dose of vitamins...I just started yesterday so don't have results yet but hoping it works...I'm going on a cruise in October and don't want to be bald. Oh am down 60lbs.

I am new to this forum and am waiting for my surgery in a couple of months. RE the hair loss... It's only hair. It will grow back. I know, because 2 years ago I got quite sick with a virus in my heart and lost a lot of hair. I thought for a while I would just shave my head, but then wouldn't you know, Britney Spears did it, and I did not want people to think I was copying her! LOL!! Anyways, my hair all grew back. Its a side effect from the protein loss, apparently.. so take heart. Look at it from the perspective of someone who supports breast cancer! You are alive, and getting healthier every day! Rejoice in that aspect!
