Why is my hair falling out after weight loss? 😩
Noticing more hair in your brush or shower after losing weight? It can be worrying — but it’s actually quite common after rapid weight loss, bariatric surgery or while using GLP-1 medications.
Rapid weight loss can temporarily shift more hairs into the shedding phase. And if you’re not getting enough nutrition, this can contribute too.
🥚 Protein
🥩 Iron
🥜 Zinc
🥬 B vitamins
🐟 Healthy fats
This is why good nutrition matters just as much as the number on the scales.
At BMI Specialist Clinics, our approach is about more than simply losing weight — it’s about supporting your nutrition, health and wellbeing throughout the journey. 💛
If you’re experiencing significant or ongoing hair loss, speak with your healthcare team so other causes and nutritional deficiencies can be checked.
