Did you experience more hair post op?? Since about week 2 (the start of my long @$$ stall) I have been experiencing more and more hair. Little whisker like hairs on my chin and neck (which I would get around AF time) and on my belly (which I would rarely get). Is this normal?? Could it be the reason I'm experiencing the world's longest 3 week stall??

I see the doc tomorrow for my 6 week follow up but I'm curious.

I was good for the first month or so and then my symptoms started up again. The hairs are growing faster, my skin is terrifically oily, and I've got flat out bald patches on the top of my head. I was having androgenic hair loss before, but with the general shedding happening now the results are seriously distressing me. I made the first appointment that I could get with my Reproductive Endocrinologist. (Not until November, unfortunately.) Obviously my hormone levels are wonky again, despite having him tell me that he considered me cured after surgery.



I don't have any good news to share, but I'm right there with you.

ETA: I haven't had any problems with prolonged stalling, though my 3 week stall was 21 days long. My loss has been a steady 10+ pounds per month, give or take a few.

High weight: 276

I haven't had surgery yet but as a cyster, losing my hair scares the hell out of me!
