User Reviews for biotin

My hairdresser asked what I was doing different for my hair- that it's fuller, healthier, and growing faster. Manicurist said same about my nails. I just question whether this is causing my face to sweat more?

I've been taking biotin for a month,it has shown a difference in my nails,feel stronger, hair seems to be growing some,noticed a steady weekly weight gain, i take 5000mg per day,going to cut back to every other day

My hair was thinning very badly. So I went to the dematology and they recommended me to use this product. So I went to get my hair braided in 8weeks my hair was growing so fast I couldn't believe it. This is a good product. Doesn t make your hair thick but it will make it grow. I was taking the 5000mg thats the best the strongest dosage. So it does work And If anyone says that it dont work they would be lying.

After over a year of using biotin daily, I saw absolutely no change in fingernails.

I cut all of my hair off to my chin 2 years ago. I started taking biotin everyday (5000 mcg daily) and now my hair is almost to the middle of my back and super thick which is a huge deal for me because before I started treatment my hair would grow very very slowly and it was weak and brittle to the point where it would break off which ultimately cancelled out any growth. Fabulous stuff.

I have diabetes 2 and have had a lot of pain in my feet, burning, sharp pains, etc. Ater a 2 or 3 weeks that pain and burning and tingling is gone. I will continue to use the 5,000 mcg.

After many months of extreme stress/poor sleep my hair began to break off and fall out. I also noticed a thinning spot at crown of my head Dr says could be blood pressure message and/or hormone issues from perimenopause. I read about biotin and tried it. Take 5000 mcg per day Natrol Fast Dissolve. In less than 3 weeks I have no breakage and my hair is thicker at the root. My skin looks better as well. Also take Bcomplex and Ginkgo daily. It's working wonders for me.

I have been using this for a couple of months and I have not seen any change in my hair. I'm still loosing it.

I started taking biotin because my nails became brittle after menopause. It didn't help my nails much but I started getting frequent compliments on my skin. My facial skin has become much smoother and the blotchiness I've had since I was a child is gone.

I suffer from Trichotillomania, and I have seen a tremendous difference in the way my hair grows. It doesn't help with the disorder, but my hair grows so fast. It definitely decreases my anxiety. I recommend anyone with this anxiety disorder to take Biotin.

My hair thinned greatly on the crown of my head. My stylist said to try 500 mcg of Biotin. I started that about 5 months ago along with generic Rogain for Women once a day. You can see the regrowth on the top of head. My dog has lost some of her hair so I'm starting to supplement you diet with Biotin too.

I am 64, and have always had thin brittle nails. I have been using biotin for 6 months, and my nails are strong as nails :) Love the English language :) In addition, my thin white hair has thickened!! Love it!!

Biotin supplements and even multivitamins containing small amts of biotin caused a disruption in my hormones. I experienced irregular cycles,acne, ordorless discharges & even vaginal dryness. Within 2 wks of no biotin, all symptons started to return to normal after about 2 years of consuming biotin.

Within 2 2 weeks, I noticed that almost NO hair fell out, especially while washing my hair. Spring Valley Bioton 1000 mcg 150ct Softgels.

not to good

my hair was already apl before i had started taking the vitamins well its been 3 months since i started taking them and its still armpit length. i took one pill a day everday by the way.

I take 1000 mcg of biotin per day. NAILS: My nail strength has increased greatly. Multiple nails used to tear, every week. Often the tear pattern seemed like some including "layers" of the nail were torn. I could not keep them long enough to have white tips. Now my nails are strong, they no longer peel, and rarely tear. I am able to keep them all at the same length, with moderately sized white tips. HAIR: I started the biotin for hair and nails. I have very fine hair which is thinning in the vortex area (63 y). I do not color my hair and I have no gray. This was my mother's situation in her 60's. I think the biotin is slowing my vortex hair thinning, but that is difficult to say because I have no controlled comparison. My hairdresser also thinks my hair is actually a bit thicker in the vortex area, needing less work for her to cut it in a flattering way.Read More Read Less

My nails are stronger than ever now and its only been 2 months taking the 5000mcg

Biotin at 5,000 mcg 3 times a day has done two things for me: It markedly decreases my appetite, and dramatically increases my sex drive. Has done nothing however for my blood sugar.
