If i take a 5,000mcg biotin gummy everyday, how long until i start seeing results on my extremely thin hair?

Never: Biotin will do NOTHING for your hair, skin, or nails. If you need help for thinning hair, see a dermatologist. Be prepared to itemize every single medicine, vitamin, supplement. Be prepared to discuss any birth control, pregnancy, and menstrual history. Have you been ill or lost weight\? Any blood tests? Family history?
