Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

You are having telogen effluvium... Diffuse hair loss.

You are taking clomiphen and progesterone.

Above drugs might cause hair loss.

If you wish to continue them, no problem.

Follihair is a combination of biotin and other drugs.

It is totally harmless.. At present you can take.

After conceiving , do not take.

Apply beclomethasone lotion on scalp daily at night.

Improve immunity and hygiene.

Control of hair fall may be there.

I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
