Does Biotin Cause Bloating?
could 3000 mcgs of Biotin taken daily cause bloating? I began taking Biotin about 3 weeks ago to help my nails and hair grow and have been experiencing bloating the last week or so. I discontinued taking it 1 day ago to see if my bloating would improve - so far it has not.

5. Any weight loss?
6. Any pain killer intake?
