Fungal Infection On Scalp , Baldness. Hair Transplantation. Effluvium And Renocia Which Caused Dandruff Irritation. How To Stop Hair Fall?

Hi, I am 29 year old, I had very thick long hair, during my studies i got fungal infection on scalp which took out all my hairs and i lost all my thick and long hair... i took treatment from dematologist for fungal infection ... skin was better but i could not regain my hairs.. doctor priscribed me Minoxid 2% and some vitamin tablets which I took for 6 months.... i got nice hairs but after stopping the medicins I lost everything again.. and baldness was more prominant:( Later tried homeo pathi medicin from Dr.health which worsen the condition... finally i had to go for hair transplant twice... it covered some part of my baldness... but what I feel is i am losing my other ntatural hairs... which feels like creating Baldness in other areas where I take partision... to go for oe more session of hair transplant I dont have much doner hairs ... I stopped taking all other treatment and using ayurvedic hair oil from Kottaikal.

Now when I went to one Dermatolost for some other issue.. He suggest me some medicin saying I have Telogen Effluvium... Coverit 5% and Renocia hair revitelizing solution in a gap of one hour for two times a day and tablet TRICHOTON morning and Tab A to Z in night time... this created lot of skin peel and dandruff kind off irritation.. hair loss badly... he reduced coverit from 5% to 2 % ... hair fall dint stop... he stopped Coverit and asked me to use only Renocia.I am doing it so.. its been ,more than a month now.

this is history of almost 10 years .. can u guide me if I still have hope to regain hair on my scalp?? thiker??
I am frustrated and I want get hairs :(

Hello,
Thanks for the query,

The treatment given to you is correct.

Any hair fall treatment takes atleast 3 months to show results.

Also there might be an increase in hair fall initially.

So dont change treatment frequently.

Hair transplant is successful mainly in androgenic alopecia,

You are having diffuse loss.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.

you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.
