I am a 26 year old female, just had knee surgery last year june 2005. I have been experiencing a tremendous amount of hair loss since then. I’ve read that it could be because of the anethesia, so, my question is how long after will this continue.
One of the manifestations (or presentations) of female genetic hair loss is that some women have hair that sheds easily with stress and then comes back. You will have to wait this out.

I have experienced the same thing, after having my galbladder removed. It began about two weeks after the surgery and seems to be not going away, its been a month now. It’s an excessive amount of loss!!
