Biotin

Does any one know if Biotin causes weight gain? I started taking 2 doses a day at 5000mcg last Wednesday and since then my scale has gone up atleast 4 pounds and I havent changed my eating or excersice habits just introducing the Biotin.

    I've taken biotin for months at a time and never experienced weight gain.

    I take 5000mcg of Biotin every morning but I've never noticed any weight gain.. maybe take only one dose a day and see what happens? That's the only thing I can think of! Hope this helps! :)

    I have biotin in my hair, skin and nails vitamins and I have maintained the same weight for 15 years. But, everyone is different. Try cutting down and see what happens.
