Hair Loss

I had my sleeve in January. A couple of months ago my hair started coming out very badly. It has continued to come out and I am getting worried. Does anyone have suggestions that may help with my problem?

Sorry to hear about the hair lost. I was also sleeved in January I started to lose my hair at 3 months now it slow down a lot. I take 2 Multivitamin and 2 Biotin pills everyday plus I try to keep my Protein level at 60-80 grams day.

Strudel,

There's not a lot that you can do, since it's hormonal. Fat cells soak up the hormones. When that fat is burned, it re-releases the hormones back into the blood stream. Plus, the weight loss upsets hormonal processes. This is why women lose hair after childbirth. It settles down around month 7 or so. Keeping up the Protein, Vitamins, and Biotin will help the new growth.
