Hair loss after bariatric surgery, which is known as Telogen Effluvium, is quite common. However, this is not permanent in nature. It’s a cycle spanning 4 to 6 months. Thereafter, fallen hair is replaced by new follicles. Hair fall can be prevented with specific prevention tips.
Increase your protein intake
Your healthcare expert will likely tell you to increase protein intake in your diet. Nutrition is vital when we talk about recovery after bariatric surgery. Protein not only helps reduce hair loss but it also replaces the fallen hair with follicle at a much faster pace.
Supplement intake
Seek the help of your expert and include supplements in your diet like vitamin B & C, iron and zinc. These supplements are necessary to avoid deficiencies in your body. It not only prevents hair fall but these nutrients help prevent fatigue and weakness as well. The way to pace up your recovery is to keep the body rich in nutrition.
Include biotin and vitamin D
Vitamin D and biotin are two essentials that you must include in your daily diet. If the food containing these is out of your consumption chart provided by your expert, talk about taking them in the form of supplements. This way, your body can recover at a fast pace.
Hormonal changes
Many hormonal changes take place in your body as you lose weight. Your hormones begin to balance themselves, which might affect your hair for a temporary period of time. If you have diabetes, thyroid or any other hormonal disorders, your body will regain its hormonal balance, which might bring multiple temporary transformations.
