Suggest Treatment For Excess Hair Fall
Hi, from past 3 weeks I am having severe hair fall like when I comb and when i do hair wash, am getting bunches of hair into my hands. Its all of a sudden and I can feel tiny heat boils on my scalp may be 3 to 4 in total. Recently, I have drastic improvement of Iron and blood levels in my body. After doctor consultation, within 3 months my Iron levels changed from 1 to 70 and blood levels from 6 to 13. Am not sure whether my sudden hair fall is due to sudden body changes or tiny heat boils or weather changes. Am also new to this place. Is this normal? How long can i wait and observe for getting back to normal? Will hair spa or keratin treatments help me in this case. Thanks in advance

Hello,
Excess hair loss commonly occurs due to poor general health condition, thyroid issues, hormonal problems, anemia, vitamin D deficiency, dandruff, boils or fungal infection on the scalp, etc. You are suggested to keep scalp clean. Shampoo your hair with Selsun shampoo and oil your hair & scalp with coconut or almond oil. You should get clinically examined by a dermatologist. If you have fungal infection on the scalp you may need a course of anti-fungals.
Take food rich in vitamin C, D, zinc, iron, biotin or you can also take supplements. You can take Logihair capsules, once daily for 15-20 days. Take balanced home made food & avoid addictions if any. Get treated for any past disease that may cause hair fall. Get treated at the earliest.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
