Hair Loss and Vitamins
This i**** or miss for most people but you might also try a Biotin enhanced shampoo along with biotin supplements. It seems to help some people. My hair thinned for quite a while and this didn't help but I've seen posts from people that responded positively to those steps.
I seem to remember this being associated with surgery overall not just the DS. We'll see if anyone else has more info on that.

So, obviously, I knew that hair loss was a possibility. I'm just past three months and I'm losing a scary amount of hair. I don't have any bare patches on my scalp, but I'm worried that I'm headed that direction. My hair is unusually dry, and yesterday I got a massive tangle in my hair. That hasn't happened to me since I was a little girl! And as I brushed it out? I lost even more hair. It really is a ridiculous amount that I'm losing. Is this common/normal? Will it stop any time soon? What should I be doing to prevent it/stop it?
My other question is about the vitamins. I went out and bought the Bio-Tech ones as recommended here on the forum. I've just been taking all of them in the morning together and now I'm wondering if that's wrong. If I shouldn't take like A with D or something. If I should be spreading my vitamin intake throughout the day. Thoughts?
google " telogen effluvium " on hair loss after surgery. It is because of the anesthesia. It is normal.
