Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hair fall is always multifactorial: diet/ lifestyle/ stress/ dandruff/ hereditary/ weather changes etc to name a few. It is important to know the cause of hairfall. Also, it is normal for around 100-150 hairs to fall everyday. They undergo a hair cycle and new hair grow in their place. Start consuming multivitamins with biotin in them. Work on your nutritional quotient too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Loss of 30-40 hairs everyday is normal. But as you were anemic, please do check your serum ferritin levels. If ferritin levels are normal, you do not need to bother much.
