Suggest Remedy For Hair Problem

hi i am a girl my age is 21 i have severe hairfall problems for nearly more than 6 years.i have undergone a treatment in vcare center for three to five months but the results were good initially but later i again had severe hair fall. after that i tried kotakal arya vaithiya saalai for more than 6 months it was also initially good but later again i had a bunch of hair fall everytime i comb my hair. then finally i tried NUZEN gold herbal hair oil. i am using it for past 8 months and my hairfall is under little control.my hair is growing longer but not getting the volume.the roots of my hair are very week.even if i slightly massage my hair my hair will fall.i used to take care of it very gently but even then the results are very slow.i have done perming twice first time before five years and second time before three years.my hair is not at all healthy.i want a healthy hair.i am afraid of trying new things as it may not suit my hair.i use meera shampoo thrice a week.at times i do have little dandruf and ill use head and shoulders.coconut oil will not suit my scalp because it will results in more hairloss when i use it.my roots are really very week. i have heat body.my weight is 72 and my height is 166cm.i do sweat a lot.i dont have thyroid problem.please suggest me a good remedy.next year is my marriage and i want my hair to look healthy.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

You seem to have telogen effluvium. There may be some cause. Your dermatologist might investigate to find out the cause of hair fall. Anaemia, thyroid dysfunction,vitamin deficiencies, internal diseases,stress, malnutrition or internal diseases..etc may be considered.

I would suggest...

- biotin 10 mg daily for long time
- vitamin E 400 mg daily
- vitamin B complex and minerals like Zinc,iron,copper...etc ..
- treatment of the cause
- herbal shampoo alternate days
- you may continue apply minoxidil 2% twice a day
OR
- you may apply mild steroid lotion daily at night instead minoxidil.. Along with herbal hair oil

Have patience,as the good result take long time.

Thanks.
