Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

In short, if you have a procedure planned you'll want to review all your supplements and medications with your surgeon. As far as hair health goes there are no published clinical studies of any quality to support use of biotin, caclium, magnesium and linoleic acid in treating or preventing hair loss. Most recommendations depend somewhat on the cause, but regardless of the cause these have quite limited value overall. The DHT blockers continue to be studied in androgenetic alopecia. Benefits are not clear.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

You can take whatever supplements you want after surgery including Biotin and any known DHT blocker as well
