Is Novophane Effective In The Treatment Of Hair Loss?

I am 26 years old, facing hair fall problem for last 8/9 months. previously I had thick and healthy hair, but problem started when my son was around 12 months old. Currently I am a lactating mother, taking folic acid for last 10-12 days. My doctor suggested novophane but i am little bit confused about it, does it really work?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. I understand your concerns.
It depends on the exact type of hair loss. There is evidence that in some people Novophane may stimulate hair growth, regeneration and strengthen the hair, however in other, there no any effect. But it cant be harmful and it is worth of try. As I know it can be used while lactating but if you have any concerns you should check this with your gynecologist.
I hope I have answered you query.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
