Will Biotin make me grow more hair in places I don't want?

I want to try GNC Women's Hair, Skin %26amp; Nails Formula but I'm worried about possibly getting facial hair or more leg hair. Is 2500 mg of Biotin too much?

I think you mean 2500 MICRO grams, not mg as in MILIgrams.....

You can safely take up to 4 or 5 milligrams of Biotin daily, it is not too much. No, it doesnt cause other body hair to grow wildly. I have been taking Biotin in large doses of over 3000 micrograms [ equal to 3 miligrams] daily and my hair is growing in thick and dark and at a much faster rate than it normally would. I have been taking these supplements for 2.5 years.

Just on the head dear.

I found that it "strengthened" my hair and nails and made it healthier. I did not find however that it grew new hair - on my head or otherwise...just made it stronger and healthier. Just follow the suggested dosage on the bottle. Taking more than suggested will not make it work better or faster.

A good friend of mine (male) has been using Biotin since we were 17 or so (9 years) and his hair is still thinning. I couldn't tell you if it made him grow more hair in other places, because he could just be a hairy bastard, if you know what I mean. His dad is a pretty hairy guy, but also went bald early, so my friend has been fighting it for his whole life.

i did take that vitamin supplement for a short term and i thought it was making all the hair grow stronger or more if you know what i mean:-) b ut may be it was my imagination because i was afraid it was gonna do that. giess you can start on it and see if you see a difference and than decide wether to stay on it or not.

Biotin did'nt help me. I have thin hair that runs in my family.It also gets thinner the older I get! Hate it!!!! I've tried lots of things and no luck.I just except what I've got left. Biotin will not make hair grow anywhere else either! I feel your pain!
