How long does hair loss last?



Recommended Posts

I will be 5 months and started my Hair loss at 3 1/2 to 4 month out but holly hairloss. I have already cut my hair shorter,but still tons and tons gone everyday thinning out big time. I take my Vitamins, i can't take Biotin since I have typhoid issue. Just would like to know how loss did you experience the hair loss? I do you know something that really works?

I am 13 months out from vsg and I still have a little bit of Hair loss, but no where near as bad as it was between months 4-7. Mine has started growing back and I have baby hairs now, and I just found out I was pregnant so I will experience hair loss again after I have my baby :( it will get better but everyone is different, just keep up on Protein, Water and vitamins!

Well Telogen Effluvium is complex and not one size fits all. Do a bit of research if you have not already

Ah the $64,000.00 question my friend. We ALL want to know how long hair loss lasts! LOL.

(And btw, sorry bout the typhoid. The good news is you'll prolly be dead before you go completely bald.)

My hair was thinning before hand, so my Hair loss was pretty brutal. I was taking 10,000 U of Biotin and also lysine. I started getting Iron infusions and I think being anemic was part of my hair loss. It started at 3 months and by 4-5 months it was bad. BAAAAADDD. I cut my hair short and do sort of a comb over from the back (very subtle). When I went in at 6 months for a cut, my hair dresser said I had lots of baby hairs. I will never have the hair I did when I was 18, but that’s ok. Look up tellogum effluvium. When the hairs fall out it’s because new ones are coming in.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
