General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Localized loss of hair what you are having could be due to infection or allergic reaction such as 'eczema'.
Diprovate Plus contains a topical steroid 'Betamethasone' which has anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties along with Zinc sulphate.
Its lotion form is effective in treating skin conditions such as swelling, itchiness, redness and hair loss. It needs to be applied at the skin of the scalp twice daily.
Androanagen contains plant derived Saw-Palmetto extract as the main active ingredient along with biotin and folic acid. It is known to promote hair growth.
Hence, what the doctor has prescribed is right and kindly use them as suggested.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
