Guest guest Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 I had surgery two months ago and haven't had a problem with hair loss...yet. What dosage of Biotin did you take? Is the pill small enough to swallow or did you have to crush it? Sunny Open RNY 1/6/04 273/240/150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 I think it was 500 mg. It's a small pill like tylenol. But, I do crush all pills still. or Place the pill in water til it turn into sort of a wet powder. I'm very anal about the pills. Even the capules, I open them up and mix it with water. I don't want my little hole to be damaged. OH!!! Today is my one (1) year anniversary. I'm doing fine. Went to doctor today PCP. to get prescription for labs. He asked me...why are you here!! You look real good. Despite that I was depressed because I've gained 2 pounds. He told me it was probably water retention. We'll see. > I had surgery two months ago and haven't had a problem with hair > loss...yet. What dosage of Biotin did you take?

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 Biotin is a fairly small pill, I didnt have to crush it, but I didnt start taking it until I was about 4 mos out. I think it erally does work I mean I still was losing hair, but I think it would have been alot worse had i not started taking them. well best of luck.
