I have been having hair problems for the last 1 year, with excessive hair fall. My blood test shows low vitamin D and vitamin B12. I have been taking Nutrilite Cal Mag D and vitamin B12 supplements for the past month, but I have not seen any improvement. Due to WFH, I am living in Sangli, Maharashtra. I have also had some period related problems in the past 2 months. I think the hair loss may be due to hormonal imbalance. Please help me understand what I should do and which specialist I should consult to treat this issue/ Thank you.

Hair loss linked to vitamin deficiency and possible hormonal imbalance. If periods are irregular, consult a gynecologist or endocrinologist. Check iron, thyroid, and PCOS markers too.

Hi, I have been diagnosed with PCOS, vitamin D deficiency, and low hemoglobin. I completed the treatment course prescribed by my doctor. I also consulted a dermatologist for acne, hair fall, and severe dandruff. I am currently using Avene sunscreen as prescribed, but I still have acne marks on my face, along with ongoing hair fall and dandruff. Please suggest what I can do to improve my skin and hair condition.

I recently had a complete haemogram done, and the results showed that my haemoglobin, total RBC, total WBC, lymphocytes, POV, platelet count, MCV, and MCH are all highly imbalanced, with some values being either too high or too low. Currently, I am not experiencing any major physical problems except for hair fall. I want to understand why my blood report is showing such imbalances and what steps I should take.
