I get tiny tablets of 7500mg of Biotin from Puritans Pride online.

Am a little confused.. my doc prescribed Biotin for me but the tablets are just 10mg each? should it be much higher?

I just started using Biotin maybe 2 weeks ago and I really think I am starting to already notice some changes in my hair and nails. My nails are getting longer and feel harder and my hair seems to be growing. It's kjnda weird or just my imagination.

I have been on Biotin for almost two months now, they told me to start on 1000 mg, I started taking 5000 and I still am losing so much hair every day. Also, I had my surgery in June and I'm only down 37 lbs... Sheesh...

How much Protein are you getting in daily? If your intake is low that could explain the slow weight loss & excessive shedding.

I have increased my Protein, brought all my levels up (eg) Vitamins B12, Iron, etc...I'm so ready to get back out, but in single digit numbers, no thanks...snacking a bit more...good days, bad days....I need some suggestions!

10mg equals 10,000mcg ... just found that out at the store. You are taking the highest possible.

Is there a liquid or chewable form of 10mg Biotin that any of you suggest?

Natrol makes some that dissolve in your mouth. I use those and I bought them at Amazon.< /p>

I have been taking hair skin and nail Vitamin from Vita4Life. They have worked great for me. Apart from containing Biotin it also contains MSM that really boost the Hair growth and helps in maintaining a healthy skin and nails. I have been taking them for over a year now and have really helped me in getting a healthy skin.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
