Is it safe for my HT grafts (one month out) to fast during ramadan, or will it have an affect on the outcome of my grafts?

May 3, 2018
Asked By:Jamesully in Toronto, ON

I received a FUE hair transplant 3 weeks ago tomorrow. My religious fasting duties start on the 15th of may which will make my HT 4 weeks out. As the question says, will fasting have an adverse effect on my grafts if i dont eat until sundown? Thanks to all who reply.
