Suffer through it. There really isn't anything you can do that's 100% proven effective for all.

i haven't experienced hair loss yet, (3.5 mos since sleeve) fingers crossed. Taking Biotin and getting my protein in.

I'm with Matt on this one. I don't think there is really anything you can do, except let it run its course. From other threads here, people say that it does grow back; it'll just take some time.

I'm 5 months out today. Mine started falling out at month 3. I really hope it lets up soon it's kinda stressing me out now. I use biotin and a special shampoo. I try not to bush it everyday or put it up so it's not stressed. When did it usually start to stop for people? I heard around the 6th month. I hope that's true! Any longer I'm gonna have to look into wigs.

Mine started falling out a couple of weeks ago, and I get great clumps in the shower. Luckily, while my hair is quite fine, I had a ton of it. So the thinning of it has not rendered me bald - yet. :) My stylist cut it differently to take advantage of how thin it is getting, and that helped.

My understanding is the the hair loss will stop eventually - isn't that right?

Mine has always been thin plus i have PCOS which I've always lost a little due to that but now i just want it to stop before i have patches lol. I'm sure stressing out about it doesn't help but it's hard not to. Other then that everything overall has been going great! I'm down 78lbs and have 4lbs to go before my final goal weight.

that is one of the things I'm NOT looking forward to. I am a hairdresser and have very thin hair myself and only hope I will be able to find a style to hide any loss. I have always taken biotin and still do, but I don't think that is what causes the loss. Protein does. I'm trying to get all the protein in.

If you do lose hair around the hairline of chunks of hair does fall out on sides, you can get an eyeshadow close to your hair color and put the shadow on your scalp where the hair fell out. it blends nicely.
