I had my surgery 3 months ago and my hair is falling out like crazy. I'm taking Biotin and have been taking my Vitamins and been drinking my Protein. Is this normal?! Because at this rate I'll be bald by next month. Please help!!!

They said it really isnt nothing you can do about it. If youre getting your Proteins in and fluids and taking your Vitamin, thats all u can do. If you weren't doing all these things, thats what theyd be telling you to do. Im only 3wks out and im dredding that part. Some lose alot of hair and some people dont. But i went through chemo and lots all my hair so if i start, ill just shave it and it will grow back

It is completely normal between months 3 and 9.

The hair follicles go to sleep during surgery and take three months to fall out. You will not go bald but many people get a short layered cut so it blends in better. It will grow back.

Hi, don't panic it's normal. Mine is finally tapering off. I was shedding like a St. Bernard! Mine lasted about 10 months, drove me crazy, I left a trail wherever I went! It was quite the experience. Mine was coming out so fast & furious I thought I was going to end up at some hair transplant club, Lol. Just go with it, smile and it will stop. I can tell you this but you won't fully believe it until it actually stops. Best wishes & hang in there, keep a sense of humor about it & you'll be ok!!

It is normal. hair loss normally occurs during the weight loss phase. After you transition into the Maintenance phase, your hair loss should come to an end and most of your hair will grow back in.
