Guest guest Posted October 4, 2000 Report Share Posted October 4, 2000 , I will answer your question about hair loss to the best of my ability. I am 5 months post op and I began seeing hair loss about six weeks ago. I noticed it first in the shower drain and then on my clothes. I have thick hair so it is not noticable to anyone but me. I do not personally know of anyone that has had to wear a wig. On the post op page it is not mentioned very often so I gather it is not a very big problem with too many people or you would hear more about it. But again, everyone is different. I do know that it last for several months and then comes back, often curley. Hope this helps, sorry I can't answer your other two questions.
