Brief Answer:
Remedy for your hair problems

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us

I am dr.kakkar (dermatologist).
I have gone through your query and I have viewed the image.
I suggest you to take an oral biotin supplement e.g Tab. Revilus once daily for at least 6-9 months.
PCOS can lead to hair thinning and shortened anagen phase (growth phase) of hair growth cycle.
In addition to your treatment for PCOS you may also take a tablet of finasteride 5mg (Finast 5mg) for your hair. Finasteride helps counter the negative effects of male hormones like hair thinning and shortened anagen phase.
There is no quick fix for your problem. You must take these tablets for at least 6-9 months for noticeable improvement.

Regards
