I am almost one year out on July 23. Just curious what vitamins you all are taking? I have a dr appointment soon and sure he will go over everything that I need to continue.

I'm taking two multivitamins, folic acid, and two calmags daily, alone with vitamin D 3 times weekly, and b12 injections monthly. Plus IV iron infusions as needed. But to be fair, I have had absorption issues long before the surgery.

I take b12 (500 mg daily), calcium chews 2 x per day, and the bariatric advantage multi. I also take mega red krill oil, cause I don't need cholesterol meds anymore. I also take biotin, even though I am no longer losing my hair.

Does biotin help with hair loss?

There is no "scientific" proof, but I felt better taking it. I did lose hair, but it wasn't horrible and it didn't last long.

Thanks for your help. I have done pretty good with what I take. A multi, b-12, vitamin d, biotin, iron and calcium. I don't take iron like I should. I tend to forget. All my levels test out great I was just wondering what all everyone else has to take:)

I am taking general multi-vitamin; calcium, d-3(?) and B12.

July 30th will be one year for me. I take a multi vitamin, iron, B12, calcium, vitamin D, probiotic, and Biotin

How much Biotin should we be taking?

I take 10,000 mg.

I'm 15 months out and have not changed my vitamin routine at all.

I take Vita4Life Multi-Plus and I take 4 per day. My surgeon recommended I take Vita4Life products because I simply can’t stand chewables. I've had nothing but great results with them. I take their Chelated Calcium. Multi-standard, and sublingual B-12. I swear by these Vitamins. I was speaking to someone there the other day when I placed my order, and they’re coming out with chewables shortly. I believe she said they estimate 1-2 months. You may want to check them out if you prefer a chewable?

I'm under 2 years out and I don't take any supplements.

My daughter however, has Grave's Disease and she takes the hair and nails Vitamins for hair loss. It does seems to help. But the cause of the hair loss is different than our so IDK if that makes a difference.
