Hi,

There are 2 reasons in your case for hair loss. Typhoid is known to cause this but at the same time Valparin is also know to cause hair loss, changes in texture, curliness of hair. Hence, I would advise you to consult a trichologist that is usually a skin specialist to find the cause, get you investigated to know the primary cause and to know why the hair fall is still continued. He will also find if there is any skin condition that has instigated or enhanced the problems and get you the correct and proper treatment.

Also, get your blood vitamin levels like B-complex, vitamin A and D. This cause is underrated. Get the vitamin deficiency levels corrected under the guidance of your doctor for proper doses and to avoid overdose. Avoid excessive washes and stop using anything that family, friends, net sites have suggested, go only for authentic treatment to get some results and have improved social life.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
