Question: Why hair fall?
Brief Answer:
Many reasons
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.
There can be many causes for hair fall. The treatment will suit you more if the cause is known and treatment is directed towards it.
Mostly male pattern baldness is the causes for hair fall. In such a case nothing much works. Minoxidil lotion locally can help in these cases.
There may be other causes as well. One of the causes is nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional deficiencies can be ruled out with blood tests for anemia, vitamin deficiencies.
Another cause can be dandruff. Dandruff is not really treatable but can be reduced to acceptable levels. Drinking water from RO system can help. Raising immunity with regular exercise also helps.
Biotin tablets can be taken irrespective of cause.
Thus if you let me know the details of your symptoms and medicines that you are taking, I will be better able to help.
