Suggest Remedy For Hair Loss

Hello Dr. I am 38 years old, height 5.1" and weight is49 kg.

I'm a scleroderma patient suffering since 2003.

I'm on 7.5 mg and 5 mg steriods on alternate days. Now I'm suffering from hair loss. My doctor has recommended me the tablet "Estemo". But since i have started it I'm suffering from drowsiness, so i needed to know the side effects of the tablet. Please guide me. Thank You.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per your case history of hair fall, my treatment advice is -

1. Use a good herbal hair oil and shampoo for routine use.
2. Take good nutritious diet full of green leafy vegetables and milk.
3. Take an iron supplement and vitamin B12 supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are oral multivitamins and mesotherapy done by a dermato-surgeon.

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