Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of hair fall and acne which could be due to hormonal changes, dandruff, stress and clogging of skin pores. You should take Minoxidil and Finasteride for hair loss. Do oiling of scalp regularly to avoid dandruff. I would suggest you to try to reduce your stress . Wash your face with face wash containing salicylic acid. Exfoliate your skin twice a week. Apply azelaic acid cream after washing face twice a day. You should consult dermatologist once and get it examined. Start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid taking oily, fried and spicy food. Apply raw honey at night and wash it in the morning.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
