Keranique shampoo

No. Shampoos work externally, on the outside of the skin. The Hair loss is due to internal factors, the direct result of the surgery such as shock, anesthesia, etc. or nutritional deficiencies such as Protein, zinc, etc. Also, according to medical studies, Biotin does not reduce hair loss.

I've been using Nioxin and I think it has either slowed down my Hair loss a little or has helped with regrowth. Seems a little better.

From my research so far, it seems that nothing really stops it - it will be what it will be. However, the good news is that you only lose hair for a few months, and then it will begin to go back to normal. I have decided that I am far more self-conscious of it than I need to be - my hair person didn't even notice until I started complaining about it. I figure that I will just live with it for now because there doesn't seem to be a miracle cure for it.

I lost a lot of hair with a diet 3 years ago... Three years later still really thin on top. I was worried about bald spots, it was getting that thin. Knowing that this surgery is coming up I bought Biotin and have been taking 5000mcg daily and my hair is getting thick! Very thick... I keep reading that it doesn't work, but I disagree I have the proof.

Biotin certainly thickens the hair u have and helps with the re growth - but nothing stops the Hair loss if its going to happen. If there was something we could all take to prevent it, the ad men would have ads on every page of this site - and I would be at the front of the queue buying ;/)

3 + years post op and my hair is finally back to normal but I started takin Biotin 1 year out and through my pregnancy . It won't stop it from falling out but will help breakage and regrowth

Heck ... Wear a wig until the regrowth comes in... It's worth it. But losing the hair does suck

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
