This week's question is around hair loss.  I am now 5 months post op and started loosing hair by the handfuls about three weeks ago.  My doctor says it is from the anesthesia, but I have had other surgeries and not experienced this.  I assume it is more from a change in nutrition.

What have you all experienced in regaurds to hair loss?

I did.  At about 4 months out, I started to get thin.  It didn't get so thin that anyone else noticed, but I did.  Eventually it just stopped falling out.

Up your protein intake and maybe try some special conditioner for your hair.
