Hi,

Female pattern hair loss is commonly due to hormonal problems. As you are Estradiol and Finasteride, I feel that your hair fall may be due to hormonal imbalance. Consult with your Dermatologist and Endocrinologist to tailor a treatment plan for both hormonal issues and hair loss.

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