hi guys. had sleeve surgery on 01/29/13. i've lost 90lbs so far (20 before surgery)

so long story, my hair is starting to fall out. little by little. not in big clumps or anything.

i know this is a side effect but i was wondering if there's anything i can do.

also will it grow back?

should i start propecia or rogaine?

just a little nervous here.

i know it's just hair and cosmetic but i want to try and keep it as long as i can.

thanks in advance

It will grow back within a few months. It's just your body's way of dealing with the shock of the surgery - same thing can happen with any major surgery. In a few weeks, if you look, you'll quite likely find that you have new hairs starting to grow in. No need for propecia or rogaine. Some people suggest using a Biotin based shampoo and/or taking oral biotin. Make sure you're getting your Protein in and you are getting your Vitamins. If you currently wash your hair daily, you might want to consider switching to every other day, as the process of shampooing can encourage the hair to let go.

Other than that, relax and remember that your hair may be thinner for a little bit, but your body is getting thinner for the long haul!

Good luck!
