Vitamins or supplements beside biotin?

I am 3 months out and have started to lose a considerable amount of hair, I get my Protein in and follow my plan religiously. Problem is I was using Biotin before for menopausal hair loss and now it doesn't seem to be working. Is their any other Vitamins or supplements that I should look into.

I am not the wig or hat wearing type of gal so I getting really scared. I know people recommend cutting your hair but my hairloss is so noticeable that it would only show more of my scalp.

Really scared and need advise. :(

I am 9 months out from surgery and have been losing hair since about 3 months out. I was taking (2) 5000 mcg Biotin's daily for 5 months and I didn't feel like is was helping. About a month ago I switched to Viviscal (at the suggestion of my physician). It appears my hair loss has slowed down which I am attributing to the switch, but it could also be the fact that I am not in the rapid weight loss phase anymore. I also started using Pureology Strength Cure shampoo and conditioner and applying Matrix Biolage Advanced Keratindose which contains protein daily. I will try anything to stop loosing my hair!
