Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of hair loss despite medication which seems to be due to compromised immunity of body, stress, systemic conditions, improper hygiene, fungal infection and hormonal changes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to
- Do massage of hair scalp on a daily basis ad try if it could be done with olive oil.
- Take biotin capsules on a daily basis and start with Finasteride preparations.
- You should avoid using shampoos that contain excessive chemicals.
- Take diet rich in supplements like Vitamin A, Omega-3 and Vitamin E.
- Take a protein-rich diet and healthy food intake on a daily basis.
If symptoms keep on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment with antifungal medication and shampoo.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
