Suggest Treatment For Hair Loss

I ve had more than normal hair loss as I shampoo for the last few months. How do I narrow down the cause? (medication, hair color treatment...?)I don t feel too stressed. I am a 50 year old woman and have been taking premarin for many years due to a total hysterectomy at age 23. YYYY@YYYY

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Hair fall is multifactorial: hereditary/ lifestyle change/ stress/ weather changes/ poor nutrition/ dandruff/ hormonal imbalances/ poor hair products usage etc to name a few.
I suggest start with multivitamins with biotin daily.
Work on improving your nutritional quotient. You can start Minoxidil 5% once at night which will further promote hair regrowth.
You can also speak to your dermatologist about PRP where plasma from your own blood is injected into your scalp which further promotes hair growth.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
