I'm really worried about my hair fall issue. I was diagnosed with something called telogen effluvium and my doctor recommended biotee plus for three months. But even after taking it all this time, I'm not seeing any improvement. Is it safe to keep taking the biotin supplement for longer? How long can I actually continue with this?

I've got a healthy weight, but my cheeks are super thin, and it just doesn't look great. I'm sticking to a nutritious diet, doing pranayama, and keeping up with exercise, but my cheeks still look really thin. How can I get fuller cheeks and glowing skin?
