Will Ramadan Fasting affect my hair transplant results? (I will fast approx 2.5 months after 3850 graft FUE hair transplant)

Question

I had an FUE HT on 4March, fasting starts on 15May (approx 2.5 months after my transplant). Will fasting during the day kill any of my new folicles? I'll wake up between 9am and 11am and fast all day (no food or drink), after 9.30pm I'll eat/drink as much as possible to ensure a sufficient calorie intake, I'll also eat again at 2am (at this time I'll eat low GI food which will release energy throughout the day), I'll sleep at 4am. I want to know if this will affect my transplant negatively?

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.

Ramadan fasting will not affect your hair transplant result. Your body will get the neccessary nutrition from the food when you eat. The timing won't cause any disorder.

Fasting will not effect the hair regrowth after 2,5 months later the op .and kill any of your new follicles. 2,5 months months after hair transplant all grafts take or some of them lost anyway and you can start to your normal life and religious rituals.

Although I don't think this is the most healthy way to live, I also don't believe it will affect your transplanted hairs so long as you are meeting your general caloric goals.
