Hi there,
your question needs further elaboration,like ur
age
sex
history of hair fall in the family
areas involved
associated medical conditions
any prescribed medications
general health and your diet etc
what was the level of fall in the iron
so i mean to say that there are lot onf things which need to clarify at this point.
I would suggest to contact your doctor again and discuss all these issues in detail with him/her.
