A member asked:
How much weight loss is considered "dramatic" and possible cause of hair loss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight loss: I don't think hair loss is related weight loss. How much weight loss is "dramatic" depends on how much weight you have lost and how quickly. If you are overweight don't aim for more than 1/2 to 1 lb a week until you are comfortable with your weight.
