Suggest remedy for hair fall post typhoid fever
Patient: Dr, My friend has suffered from Typhoid in August 2010. Now she had recovered but since two month she is suffering from severe itching on whole body and hair loss. Also, she is having gyanic problem after this. Her liquid discharge is regular and mensus period is delayed. what and where to go for the remidy? Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.  I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.  If your friend is facing some problems with delayed periods for the first time, then I would recommend first doing a pregnancy test. If that is negative then one can wait for the periods to arise. If they don't come then you must visit a gynaec. Hair loss is multifactorial: diet/lifestyle/weather/hormonal/products, etc. to name a few. For the itching it is important to rule out the cause for itching: food/clothing/any product/insect bite. I would suggest you get her reviewed by the concerned doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Smruti Pevekar
