Lecithin For Hair?

As anyone taken lecithin supplements after surgery? I have done some research and it may help with hair loss. I am pre-op still and wondering if anyone has tried it. My doc says biotin is ok and I will ask him about the lecithin.

I haven't read anything about lecithin, I am pre op too, I am interested to know what your doc says!

If you're pre-op, I've heard you should start taking the biotin now. And using Nioxin shampoo, conditioner & styling products. Nothing will totally stop the thinning, it's your bodies response to lack of fat and rapid weight loss. But perhaps doing this, along with making sure you get plenty of protein during the pre-surgery diet & post-surgery should help a lot.

It helped me with weight loss but never hear of it preventing weight loss.
