Hi..
I am 26 yrs of age,married now for 5 months.
I suffered from Chicken pox imediately after marriage. Though I didnot have much trouble with the scars,i have had terrible hairloss during and post chicken pox. My hair have not thinned down to almost half or may be less the volume.
Could you pls suggest what should be done.

HI
Well come to HCM
Hair loss due to chicken pox is very less likely and if this is so then condition would be reversible and you may have the regrow of hair very soon, and this is nothing to worry, and no need to treat the case, still in my opinion differential diagnosis is must, if you are male person then this could be "Male-patron-Baldness" hope this information helps, take care.
