    Mine is just starting at 8 weeks out and isn't too bad yet. It's part of the journey. My surgeon and RD say to get your protein in - it's the best bet to minimize the loss. But it is temporary!

    I have hair loss but I also have Hashimoto’s and ankylosing spondylitis. My dietician says it can continue for a year or so.

I was sleeved in November 2017 as well.. I exceed my protein goals every day so protein is not a problem and I take my vitamins and biotin everyday and have since 3 months before surgery. Before I went to see my hairdresser about my hair loss, I looked into nioxin and I have both color and chemically treated hair and didn’t see an option for both and she told me about Ultrax Labs Hair Surge and that it is probably the best over the counter hairloss shampoos out there and just needs used on the roots 5 days a week and to add zinc and silica to my diet. So I just ordered all of the above and going to see how they help.

Let me know how it goes! We all have the same struggles but we all react differently to it. If you need to talk at all don’t hesitate to message me. It’s an emotional experience and all the support helps.
