Hey, i am a 22 years old women. That lives in dubai. About 7 months ago i started notice that i was having slight hair loss more than i used to. And i was asking around. my friend told me that i have to get a water filter. So i purchased a water filter and 3 months after that i started having drastically hair loss that i can see my scalp.

Hi..

Well hair loss in women can occur due to a number of causes and nutritional deficiency, hormonal imbalance and anemia are common causes..

However taking Biotin does not always cause you rashes but it is always advisable to take any supplements after consulting a Physician..

So my suggestion is to better once consult a Skin specialist or a Trichologist and get yourself checked..

For now you can continue Minoxidil and along with it you should also massage the scalp with olive oil..
You can also take Indian Gooseberry powder daily with water..
Take a nutritious diet and avoid excessive stress.
Drink plenty of water..

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

Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora,
