How can persistent hair fall since childbirth be treated?
Patient: Hello doctor, My problem is about my hair fall. It passed10 months of my post delivery. And my hair fall started nearly from 6 months after delivery. It s very horrible day by day loosing so much of hair. Kindly suggest me with good medication. Thank you Doctor: Hello,  You seem to have postpartum telogen effluvium which is hormonal due to a withdrawal of hair stimulating effect of estrogen on hair during pregnancy.    This is usually self-limiting and recovers in 3-6 months.   However, I suggest you take a well balanced nutritious diet along with an oral biotin supplement.   Correction of any deficiency like serum iron and vitamin D, vitamin B12 would also help.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Kakkar S., Dermatologist
