Yay! My hair is growing back!



Recommended Posts

I had heard a lot about Biotin, but I did not take supplements because Biotin is in my multi-vite. But last month...desperate and willing to try anything...I started taking 5,000mcg biotin supplement everyday. I'm seeing my hairline filling in....I should have started taking the stuff right from the start....but happy now to see hair growing. :D

I actually had no idea your hair could fall out. This scares me a little. How did you notice? Meaning were you washing your hair and suddenly grabbed a ton in your hand? Sorry if the question sounds silly. lol

Yes, that's what happens. I notice more in my hairbrush, the sink, and coming out in my hand when washing. It's not coming out in handfuls, and I'm not balding, but I'm certainly "shedding" more than normal!

I'm afraid to do anything with my hair...blow dry, curl, color... Hands full just from shampooing! I'm about 6 1/2 months out. When does this stop?

I started thinning at about 3 months. Mine stopped around 5 months. Coming back nice now!

can you start this Biotin early before it starts falling out? I'm 2 & 1/2 weeks out but am thinking when i start all my Vitamins i should add this?

I have taken Biotin all along and I still have hair fall. I hit 3 months and nothing, I thought maybe i was good. 3 months and 1 week and it happened! It is a little alarming. So far i don't think anyone but me notices, but i am super nervous about that.

Mine fell out like crazy! I was scared I'd be bald.. luckily I have enough hair for 5 people.....literally! But mine finally started slowing down and I can see baby hairs coming through. I'm 8.5 months out and it has happened for the last several months

      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! 😞
