Hair Loss - Holy Moly!

So I'm almost 4 months out but the hair loss started about a month ago. It was so bad that I got my hair chopped off to a pixie-like cut so at least I would lose shorter strands. Now I'm starting to get very noticeable thinning spots on the hair line by my forehead. I'm eating 80-100 g of protein a day, taking my vitamins and biotin, getting my water in, etc. My MIL is actually sending me a special shampoo that's suppose to help.

Anyways, I know it's not abnormal to lose hair but I was curious if anyone knew a time frame as to how long it should last. Parts of my scalp is actually sore like I had it in a tight pony tail all day long.

I am taking a 10,000 mg Biotin pill (over the counter) a day. I am also using Biotin and Callogen shampoo and amplifying lotion (available at Walmart). They also have conditioner and other Biotin and Callogen products. I can really tell the difference in the less amount of hair falling out.
