Please review my test report and advise me. I have been experiencing significant hair fall recently, and I had COVID in April. What could be causing this, and what steps should I take to manage it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Post COVID hair loss (telogen effluvium) is common. Iron, Vitamin D, thyroid levels should be tested. Biotin and protein rich diet may help.
Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...
Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test

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.

I have been suffering from hair loss and baldness for more than five years. I have visited several dermatologists and completed treatment courses, but the results were not as expected. Many have advised me to undergo a hair transplant, which I do not want because the results vary from person to person and there is no guarantee even after spending a significant amount. I have also tried many hair oils for hair reduction and regrowth, but they did not work. I am looking for some treatment that can help me. I am awaiting your reply.
