How much biotin do you take per day???????

[SherryLove]

How much,,ladies?????

 

[debyjay]

2000 mcg. Just started a week ago, will probably up my intake to 5000 mcg like everyone else in the coming weeks though.

 

[Scasey]

5 mg a day. I've been takin them for a month and I haven't noticed much of a difference in my hair but my nails are noticebly longer.

 

[love2praz]

[SherryLove]

Yes. There is 1000mcg in 1mg. So 12mcg would be a considerable amount smaller than 5mg.

I take 5mg also.

 

[Nacai23]

Yes. 5 mg=5000mcg.

 

[JenJen2721]

There are 1000 mcg in 1 mg. An mg is 1000x bigger than a mcg. I know mg stands for milligrams. I have no idea what mcg stands for.

I alternate between 2, 3, or 5 mg per day.

 

[JenJen2721]

Ooops, I guess I was posting at the same time as the previous 2 poster.

5000 mcg's a day for me. Just recently started though. Seems like I have lost a couple of pounds. My clothes don't fit as tight. That's a great side affect! WoW!

[BabyCurls]

<font color="purple">300mcgs. I also started taking them a week ago, but need to purchase the 5mcgs later on. For the current, I need to take 18 of those little tablets to get 5mcgs.

I'll try it this way until I run out. </font>

 

[tekmommie]

I take 3000 mcg....I started the first month with 1000mcg about 6 weeks later bumped up to 2000 mcg and the again 6weeks later to 3000. In two weeks I'm gonna bump it up, I was scared to start at the 5 because I was concerned about headaches and bumps on my face. So far at 3000 mcg, I have had no adverse affects.

To be honest I have no idea what is making my hair grow, if anything.

 

[LondonDiva]

I take 5mg daily. I haven't taken any supplements for like 2 whole weeks now. I'm going to up mine to 8mg (I think) when I get back on them this weekend.

 

[Kengne19]

<font color="blue">5000mcg. Been on it for almost 2 weeks along with other vits but I'm giving myself at least 2 months to test results. </font>

[pooh123]

I only take 500 mcg's per day. If I take over 1000 mcg's a day my face breaks out.

Gee Whiz,
I only take 1200 mcg. I guess I can up the dosage, but I'm already consuming 7 supplements and 3 herbs at one time.
