Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

The cause of your falling hair seems to be related to the severe illness you have been through. Poor nutrition and stress of illness do affect hair growth considerably.

You can follow some simple measures to help your hair grow better -
1. Take a high protein diet. You can also apply raw egg on your hair one hour before washing them for good lustre and to cover the damaged parts.
2. Take iron and zinc supplements.
3. Avoid exposure to direct sun for long durations.
4. Keep your hair covered outdoors to avoid damage from dust, etc.
5. Take high doses of vitamin B6 and folic acid.
6. Stay away from stress and anxiety.
7. Scalp massage- A vigorous rubbing of the scalp with fingers is one of the most effective method for the prevention and treatment of hair loss. The scalp should be rubbed vigorously till it starts to tingle with the heat. It will activate the sebaceous glands and energize the circulation of blood in the affected area, making the hair grow healthy.

For rapid and sure response, you can go for mesotherapy which is a safe, simple and cost-effective option to treat hair fall due to nutritional disorders. MesoHair restoration therapy can in some cases eliminate the need for hair transplant. The side effects are negligible as the dietary supplements are injected.

You can discuss it with your dermatologist and benefit from it.

I hope my answer and recommendations are adequate and helpful. Waiting for your further follow up queries if any.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.

Yes radiation might also have caused such a rapid hair fall.

The protein supplements also seem appropriate.

You can take 5mg of folic acid and 2mg of Vitamin B6 daily to help further.

Hope my answer is helpful. Should you have any more concerns, I will be available to answer them.
