Hair Loss...

I'm over three months out now. I've been worried about hair loss because I have baby fine hair that looks thin (my hairdresser says I actually have a lot of hair but it's so fine it doesn't look like it). So now every morning when I shower I'm checking the drain and wondering "Is there more than yesterday?" I also check my hairbrush to see if there might be more hair than usual. I imagine I see a difference but it's subtle so I'm not sure.

My hair is cut short (bob) and ruler-straight. I take Biotin, use gentle hair products, never blow dry or chemically treat my hair, and I work hard to get all my Protein. I'm losing steadily but not too fast and had an uneventful surgical experience so I'm hoping that it is less stressful for my body. My team says hair loss is not a common complaint among their patients. I'm really, really hoping to dodge this particular WLS effect.
