After my heart attack and bypass, most of the hair on my arms, chest, and fingers took a vacation. I started taking 10,000mcg of Biotin, 2x daily. Note, I also take 500mg L-Arginine 2x daily. Withing 3 weeks hair started growing on my arms, chest, and some on my knuckles. A little is growing on the top of my head too! My doctor was even surprised when I had my yearly.

My sister has had an adverse reaction to antibiotics and has loss hair on numerous occasions. In some cases almost to near baldness. Biotin has always helped in a big way.

Does it work overnight and produce miraculously lush, thick hair? No. But as a woman with thinning hair, a receding hairline in places and hair frankly just falling out rapidly due to meds I'm on... I'm very pleased with the turnaround. I saw thin hairs begin to grow at my temples first, and eventually noticed my 'part' was less noticeable. It's also nice to be able to want ...

I'm very pleased with the turnaround. I saw thin hairs begin to grow at my temples first, and eventually noticed my 'part' was less noticeable. It's also nice to be able to want to wash my hair again and not feel like I'm accidentally removing all my hair. My nails are a bit stronger too, although not a huge improvement, just a slight extra perk. What I wasn't even aware is I'm borderline diabetic and perhaps this will help with that too. Oh, I did try to stop taking it (i.e. forgot to repurchase when the bottle ran out) and saw the hair problems come back -- so I won't be stopping this vitamin again. By the way, I chose Natrol 10,000mcg after doing research (which I see isn't on the list so I had to select their 1000mcg here). From what I read it's not something you can really overdo. It's also only 1x per day and a smooth round pill easy to get down.

I lost quite a bit of hair (eyelashes too) after having twins. This was in 2011. It is now 2016 and everything is back and then some! I have been taking 5,000 mcg of Biotin a day for 5 years. Anything more than 5,000 mcg upsets my stomach (I tried 10,000 and it was awful). I take it in the morning after breakfast.
