I am experiencing severe hair fall. It first started with itching and hair loss, so I consulted a doctor. She prescribed Allegra, Momate lotion, Scaboma lotion, and a tablet called Bandy Plus. She also advised me to do some tests, including Vitamin B12, Ferritin, Vitamin D, Thyroid, and CBC. My reports came back normal, and while the itching has stopped, the hair fall continues. I am not sure what is causing this. What should I do next? I am attaching my CBC report for your review.

If vitamin and thyroid levels are normal and itching has stopped, persistent hair fall may be telogen effluvium or stress related. A dermatology consult and ferritin test may help.

Hi, I am a 24 year old female experiencing severe hair fall and thinning. I have already lost about 50 percent of the hair on my scalp. My doctor suggested blood tests, which came back normal, and has now prescribed Finasteride tablets. Is it safe for me to take Finasteride? I am planning to get married in the next 6 months, and I have heard it can have side effects. Please advise.

I am experiencing hair loss due to thyroid issues and am taking Eltroxin 50 mcg. My recent blood test results came back normal, but I am still suffering from thinning hair. What should I do to manage this?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hello mam, I had hair fall and leg pain, so I tested blood through Thyrocare. There are deficiencies of vitamin D, vitamin B12, and iron. Please check my report. Also, testosterone is 60.
