HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in female patient hair fall could be due to hair root fungal infection, hormone changes, history of drugs, endocrine dysfunction, malnutrient, hypovitaminosis, pediculosis, dandruff, all these need to be ruled out, till then you may continue the "Minoxidil 5 %" hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
