Due to skin allergy and hair loss I consulted a skin doctor. My lab report shows vitamin B12 deficiency and very low ferritin levels, but the skin doctor did not give any treatment for that. Please help me and give suggestions as I am in urgent need?

B12 and ferritin deficiency can cause hair loss. You may need oral or injectable supplements. See a general physician or endocrinologist.
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test or Take a Ferritin Test Test
