Suggest Treatment For Severe Hair Fall

Hi hello! Can you please help me with my hair fall problem. Presently I m in Bahrain and i notice after 2 days arrive here my hair start falling so i went to the doctor. They take blood and check up everything is fine. They give me mixavit tabs but Im unhappy with the result. I feel like it doesn t work me at all, my hair still falling and it getting worst while staying in the certain country. I went for another doctor he give me priorin n and cystine b6 lotion for 3 months. After 2 weeks I see growing hair. Still falling but lesser I stop the medicine after 3 months . Then after 10th months i do fasting for the whole month of ramadan. I notice in the second week of ramadam that my hair start shading again and it more worst. I see also my nails is breaking. It really makes me worried. Is it because I m out of my zone or because of thier salty water or stress?Could you please give me advice. For now I only used cystiphane biographica anti hair fall shampoo. THANK YOU

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hair loss and nail breakage causes could be many and there could be some serious underlying problem.
There could be some important environmental factors playing some role like type of water, harsh salon treatments to hair/nails etc
Medical conditions like early hypothyroidism, anorexia, biotin/vitamin B group deficiency or even certain medications.
There are many simple household treatment for hair loss 1) check type of water as hard water results in hair loss 2) avoid driers, colorants & other harsh shampoos 3) do not change shampoo often 4) hair loss requires lots of protien supplement internally & externally to strengthen hair 5) vitamin B complex supplementation is required for atleast 6 months, dont expect immediate results these will help for long-term 6) use a lot of egg white externally on hair and eat a lot of egg white, soya, protein supplements 7) get evaluated for any underlying disease conditions like early hypothyroidism, liver or renal diseases
