Suggestion for hair loss



Recommended Posts

So I'm 6 months post op and have been having horrible hair loss! It's been pretty depressing :/ my mom told me to try garnier fructis fight fall and I've only used it today and it has worked wonders for me! I used both the Shampoo and conditioner and my Hair loss was reduced by at least 70 percent! Best part is that it is cheap and you can pretty much find it anywhere! I bought mine at wal mart. I wanted to share the wealth since I know that many of us are or will be going through the same thing. Let me know how it works for you guys!

I am taking so much Biotin that the beautician said I should not lose any hair. I have have strong healthy thick hair. I do the chewable biotin from GNC I love the taste of them.

I've been taking Biotin since immediately post-op and starting at 3.5 months post op, the Hair loss started. Not sure if it's not as severe bc of the Biotin, bc it's pretty significant. I am using Nioxin but will try the Garnier...thanks.

My hair loss started at 3 months. Lost about half the thickness of my hair.< /p>

Now at 6.5 months, it's slowing and growing back!

It gets better, hang in there!

I noticed the day that I was able to intake at least 60 gm of Protein, my hair lost stopped. My hair is pretty thick, so i only noticed the hair lost while washing it daily in the shower. It was my notice that the day prior my protein intake level as under 60 grams. So I started adding nuts as a daily snack which help me reach my daily protein goals. Hair loss stopped for me after 4 mons post op.

Thank you for this tip!!! I am 4.5 months post op, and I started losing SO much hair a couple weeks ago. After only a couple weeks, I have lost at least 50% hair volume. I fear I will be bald in a couple more weeks! It is so bad, I try not to brush my hair much. I barely pick through my hair and I have a huge ball of hair in my hand! I am SO going out and buying this tonight! I will let you know how it works.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
