Hello my friends, I thought for sure some of you may be able to help out. I have seen many posts regarding hair loss and what you can and cannot do about it, but my question is when does it stop???? My hair has been falling out for about 4-5 weeks now, and I normally don't notice from looking at it, but when I run my hands through it, I notice my hair is MUCH thinner than it used to be. So far I can live with it, but if it continues much longer, I am afraid it will start becoming noticeable to others! Any input, all you that have been 6 months out or more? Thanks! Karyn

Hello Secret Pal Gal! I LOVE your new pic! Hannah is just adorable! I don't have allot of advise but...I am exactly 2 months ahead of you (6 months along now---wow! that makes it sound like I'm preggo or something) My hair loss has pretty much stopped 1 month ago. I took Biotin, flax seed oil caplets, and recently I've been taking fish oil caplets (the dr. said to keep them in the freezer and it will agree with you better) I pull my hair back now and the pony-tail seems soooo thin (like one section of a hair braid) I have thick hair to start with, but I was totally stressed about how much hair came off of my head in the shower, blow dryer, and brush -out. I am assured that the hair loss part is over..done deal..sooo if you are worried...it's and educated guess that it will be over soon. The more I worried..the more I ran my fingers through my hair...the more it came out. I was sooo ready to wear a hair-net in my kitchen..just like the lunch-lady in the cafeteria Have a great rest of the day! HugsGinger

Thanks so much Ginger! I miss you! The hair loss does seem to be slowing down a bit, but I put it in a ponytail yesterday, and it frightened me how thin it felt!! I hope it doesn't last much longer, thanks for letting me know! Karyn

Mine just slacked up about a month ago. So that was 10 months out. I did everything the doctor said, protein, vitamins, including biotin. Some people it just affects more than others.
