:lol: this made me laugh. No my dear..no change anywhere else...and yes, I lost plenty of hair on my head. I even saw scalp at one point. Doesn't seem fair, does it?

This brings up a good point. I'm currently undergoing laser treatments and I was about to start treating my arms. Reading through all these posts though it sounds like I'm in for some substantial hormonal changes when I do have surgery. Has anyone had regrowth in previously treated areas after surgery?

I had my lip and between my brows done before surgery. There is no change or regrowth in those areas which is good news because that is expensive and I would have been mad.

I do think if we were going to lose hair they should picked some spots that would be more convienient.

Not my head for crying out loud!

Omg, Yes!! I was too embarrassed to a make a thread or tell someone. I haven't got a man at the moment so I was planning to keep my Lady winter fur but a month after the surgery, everytime I would shower would be strands of hair going down the drain. I was shedding like a cat.

That has now stopped and now i'm having issues with the hair on my head.

That's hilarious - I was just grousing about this yesterday! I'm blaming the Biotin, it's making my armpit hair grow like ragweed but I still have a 2-finger-width part in my hair. So not fair!

Hello ladies, question, when did you start noticing the loss of your hair. I am 1 month post op and i really havent notice any real Hair loss. I think ive shed more hair prior to even deciding to have the surgery than now lol

I am now 3 months post op and hair loss has started. I keep pulling handfuls out in the shower...

However, here is WEIRD part... my hair is growing faster, a lot faster. BUT it is growing faster in weird places too... my head, my armpits, and now I'm noticing more hair on the stomach! It's so weird, it's not an unsightly amount or anything someone would notice besides me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sasha, mine finally stopped falling out faster than it's growing in at about the 7 month mark, but it DOES come back. I got a sample of the Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco spray in my Ipsy bag (it's about $8-$10 for a big full sized can) and it works really well to keep the frizzies down without making my hair stiff. Otherwise, I walk around looking like I stuck my finger in a socket.

      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! 😞
