I take 2000mcg of biotin and 800mcg of folic acid every day. A friend said that's what her doctor recommended to her when she was having a problem with thinning. I've been taking it for about 8 months now I think, and my hair is growing faster than it ever has before. That's the only thing I can attribute it to. I don't remember how long it was before I noticed results, probably 2 or 3 months. (I've heard it can take up to 6 months to see results from any vitamin.)
I was alking Biotin for a while - about six months. I can't remember why I stopped taking it - I think you have to take it for longer then a month to see or feel results. I did notice a difference after about a month and a half
I recommended it to someone I worked with and she loved the results she saw
I took biotin and silica in 2003 (in the "hair" vitamins from walmart), only for a month to see if it helped, and it didn't do anything for me - didn't cause my growth for that month to be any faster, which was what I wanted. I haven't taken it since.

I have decided to start taking biotin, and am playing around with how much.
Soooooo..... How much do you take, and what have been the results? I have to be careful with it, or it will make me brake out, so I am also taking zinc to help with that aspect.
