My NUT told me yesterday the only, ONLY reason people’s hair falls out is because they don’t take their required daily vitamins. I cannot imagine all of you posting here, after all we learn along our journey to surgery, are not taking proper daily vitamins on top of eating the way we are supposed to. What the heck was she talking about??


Did you have the sleeve ?? Im on week for and no hair loss so it sounds like around week 10??

Your NUT is misinformed. Happens to me sometimes, can happen to others as well ;)

Any major surgery can cause it. My daughter had a huge surgery on her spine.. took like 8 or 9 hours. She lost tons of hair. Her diet wasn't affected at all (other than right around the procedure).

That is absolutely not true.
