Hello
It is an iron supplement.
It will help you as iron is required for hair growth.
It can support the growth but cannot totally overcome the problem as the main cause is thyroid disorder.
Take Biotin as it causes hair growth.
It is one of the component of hair building unit.
It also promotes utilization of proteins by hair.
Use minoxidil along with biotin.
Its a good treatment.
Regarding food you can take any diet rich in protein.
Also you can wash hair daily.
Washing wont cause hair fall.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
