Ok, so 5000!!!   I'll do it!!   I got 1000 msg from the folks here!   Wish I'd IMMEDIATELY added more as soon as I saw the thinning---but honestly it seems to have happened kinda fast!   Thanks for the tips!

Mine is falling out like crazy too, I have ball in the shower drain every time :(

I have been taking biotin 5000mcg 1xday way before surgery and till now 6 mos out... and its still falling out.  I've tripled my dose starting oh maybe 2 weeks ago so we'll see.  I cannot afford the Nioxin, I saw it at Supercuts and just can't do it, due to finances.

The biotin I get it a deal on puritan.com.. buy 1 get 1 or buy 2 get 3 free etc...  I take the 5000 mcg caps.

I hope this passes soon, it's scary how thin my hair is now, bums me out but I'll live!  :)

Thanks for the tip on puritan.com!!   I'm gonna do what I can, but it does look like its a normal side-effect we have to put up with!!

I can't help but think--what if I hadn't seen people talking about this and never USED the biotin!  I'd be BALD by now!  LOL

Take care! you're doing great!

Hi Dalis,

Yes, it's a great deal and you can usually find a free shipping code too, a site I like is "currentcodes.com"....

I get most of my vitamins there, you just have to see what the portion size is on them, some stuff it says 4 pills a day or something, and I can't do that... so other than that they have great deals!!
