Doesnt help women at all. But for men I strongly recommend talking to your PCP (or dermatologist, or you could even try your luck with your WLS) about finesteride for Hair loss. Basically makes you lose less hair/lose hair slower. Outside of Rogaine its the most popular hair loss medication.

Personally I think its far more effective than Rogaine, and it has the added benefit of being a tiny tiny pill that you have to take once a day, instead of the mess of crap that is Rogaine.

Honestly im surprised WLS dont mention it to their male patients considering how prevalent hairloss is.

(and I mention Male patients because its a hormone thing, and im pretty sure female patients cant take it)

      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! 😞
