Hello,

Since you have history of hair fall You are suggested to take healthy nutritious diet rich in iron, calcium & protein.

You can take multivitamin supplements. Avoid addictions if any. Keep your scalp clean & oiled. You are suggested to wash your hair with Selsun shampoo frequently & apply almond or coconut oil on the scalp.

Massage the oil into the scalp gently with your fingers. You can apply Minoxidil 2% gel, it is effective but may take time. Orally you can take Logihair (soft gelatin caps), once daily for a month.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K
