After transplant I have hair loss due to meds: Will it come back?

By chance do you have any specific recommendations? My mom had her liver transplant earlier this year in March and it hurts to see her having such a hard time with losing hair. She ordered some natural hair growth shampoo on amazon that is meant for all hair types so I hope it helps or becomes better over time. Let me know!

@elijunkk310, I would like to extend my welcome to you. I am happy to hear that your mom has received a liver transplant and is to the recovery stage that I remember happened to me, when I was feeling well enough to be concerned about my hair! I am fortunate to have a hair dresser who caters to cancer patients (hair care and custom wigs). She suggested that I use some of the gentle product (shampoo and conditionsr) that she recommends to her cancer partients. And then at my post transplant check-up, I was told that I could try Biotin, that it might help. But I was assured the my hair would come back in time - It did.
I assure you that your mom is not alone! Here is a link to more members talikng about hair loss:

Does your mom have a dermatologist? I would suggest that she ask the dermatologist or post transplant nurse about the product that she has ordered online.
Other than hair, How is your mom getting along with her recovery?
