About 10 days ago I began taking biotin (3333% daily value) and folic acid (200% daily value every other day) for reasons unrelated to hair. And over the past week I’ve noticed increased shedding. I don’t take a multi so I’m not getting extra B vitamins beyond my food intake. However that is a TON of biotin packed in one tiny pill!

I’ve stopped taking them and the shedding seems to be returning to normal. Still not sure though. But it got me wondering if anyone’s experienced something similar with those two vitamins, or really any supplement?
