Have Hair Fall. Used Henna. Took Follihair. Continue Medication?

hi this is dimpi 35 years from bangalore. i never use coloring chemicals except henna thrice a month. I have lots of hair fall whenever i do a hairwash and combing. Every weekend i do hair wash and lots of hair fall everytime. I am scared if i become bald. once i consulted doctor and had medicines follihair and haem up tabs for 6 montths course. when course got over, hair fall started again but not immediately. just after 2 montths same problem. is there any permanent solution for less hair fall or totally no hair hair fall. OR do i continue the same medicine for life long. thanks.

Hi mr Das welcome to Health care magic forum. You must be having male pattern baldness, probably heridetory. If it is so, it has got specific drugs,it needs treatment continuously for longer periods.
The other causes of alopecia are, anaemia, dandruff, intestinal worms, convalasence from ac diseases, anxiety and mental tensions. If these are the causes, the underlying cause should be treated under the supervision of a dermatologist.
Besides i advise you some diet recommendations, as take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, non vegetarian foods, fruits, and juices. to provide iron, prteins, and essential nutrients necessory for healthy hair grouth.
Wishing for a quick recovery, and thanks for calling.
