RE: Hair loss and gastric bypass

[Guest guest]

Dear Vicky:

Hair loss and gastric bypass is associated with an inability or decreased

ability of the body to absorb nutrients. The iron is not the problem. I went

that route. Due to severe bleeding from hemorrhoids. And I mean severe. The

fact you are anemic despite iron supplements is a sign on an internal systemic

problem. I would focus on a better overall diet and attempts to absorb food. I

know gastric bypass often causes an inability to retain food and subsequent

vomiting. Do you have this problem. This can contribute greatly to an

inability to absorb nutrients.
