Hi there.
Premature greying of hair or 'canities' as we term it in medical parlance, is a very difficult condition to treat let alone control.
I am sure your doctor is well intentioned & do try his recommendation & give it some time to work as hair issues take their time to resolve.
Personally I favour a cream called 'ALTRIS' applied locally & available in a 'gel' form. It may be applied twice a day; handle your hair as less as possible using a broad toothed comb & shampooing only twice/week.
Good luck & wish you overcome your problems soon.
