Hello,

You may take zinc and biotin tablets. Use green leafy vegetables and fruits. Check for serum testosterone and DHT levels.

Maybe minoxidil lotion may useful. If symptoms not improved please consult your dermatologist he will examine and advice 5 alfa reductase inhibitors may useful.

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

Take care
