I have been taking Biotin 5000 MCS daily....and my shampoo and conditioner have Biotin as well.....I am getting handfuls of hair falling out...which I expected! But my question is: the bottle of biotin says take one to two per day--I have only been taking one--does anyone take 2?? If so, do you seperate them or take them together?? Thanks!

I'm taking 1 per day and am starting to see some regrowth.

I was really anxious about my hair falling out.  I started biotin before my surgeon really said it was necessary.  I take two per day... at the same time.  I have only gotten really scared by the falling out once with a couple handfuls.  Granted - I'm only at about 4 months out, but I feel like it is not as bad as I was worried it could be!

Good luck!

I have used Biotin once a day for the last 6.5 months.  My hair started falling out in handfulls at 3 months out and has definitely slowed down quite a bit now.  I only take the one pill a day.

There is a new product out by DS LAboritories . i am a hairdresser and have just learned about this. It specializes in shampoo and cond. also treatments for differnet types of hair loss. Hormonal , stress, etc.. It is fairly new on the market . You might only be able to get it through salons. But try and look into it.

there is somehjng called ovations hair therapy I have heard of for a lng time as being great. The other day I heard an ad that speiically addressed hair Los due to stress and surgery. May be worth looking into. It is cell therapy
