Hair Loss Question for Kelly - or anyone else who might know

Do you know anything about the inositol or Cholin (sp?) that someone else recommended?

I don't, sorry.

Thanks!

 Someone posted in another biotin discussion that biotin also causes, or can cause, facial hair growth. 

EEEEK.... THAT would NOT be good for a woman!

  Yeah. My beard is coming in nicely...at the same rate hair is leaving my scalp. Like everything else, it's all shifting downhill. Beard doesn't need any help and scalp can wear a wig, scarf, or fabulous hat.

Oy...I need a head transplant.

Hair loss after surgery - any surgery is a given. We lose hair for a couple reasons but after surgery anesthesia and starvation mode are the biggest things. Biotin helps some but you're still going to lose some hair. You don't go bald - it thins out a bit. It lasts somewhere from the 4-10 month post op perios and you'll probably be the only one that notices. I figured nobody would notice my hair if they were looking at the "shrinking me" so I never worried about it. Many cut their hair shorter to make it look thicker, a new style may help it look better but it does grow back and in most cases comes back in better than it was before.

Thank you for sharing!

I didn't want to take the extra biotin because of the facial hair growth. No thanks!

Mine thinned out big time, but I wear a wig for now. Two weeks ago is when other people started noticing it too, so I decided to just use a wig. No problem. No one can tell. I posted pics on my profile with my wig.
