Hello Doc, and thanks for the reply. i searched about this medicine in india's registered medicine sites and could not find any info about this. how can that be possible. their should be some evidence that this is not dubious.

i searched following sites:

CENTRAL DRUGS STANDARD CONTROL ORGANIZATION
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/
and many more.

Dear Doc,

I have uploaded my last one year's period dates along with my ultrasound and blood reports for your perusal.

I know i should trust my OBG, but as this will effect my babies i want to be cautious before starting medication.

Regards.

Brief Answer:
Lists are often incomplete.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
You may not find the drug's name in all these lists but since it is from good reputed company it is likely to be a good standard medicine. The same combination is available in other companies like mankind. You can change the brand if you like.
I have seen all the reports and your period dates. The cycle is prolonged and treatment is needed for a successful conception.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.

Hi Doc,

Thanks a lot for your reply. And so nice of you for prompt answers

As such i'm not overweight nor do i have acne or heavy body hair, but i have noticed thinning of hair and also noticed few bald spots. From child hood i never had very good hair XXXXXXX but still it was okay to deal with but now thinning has lowered my self esteem a lot.

Any diet changes that you recommend to keep weight as it is but to cope with thinning.
Also online i have read that myo insositol recommended by my Ob GYn is good for hair loss too... is that true and can i continue this medicine forever.

Brief Answer:
Yes it will help.

Detailed Answer:
For thinning of hair you can take myo inositol and continue it forever.
You can follow some simple measures to help your hairs grow better -
1. Take a high protein diet. You can also apply raw egg on your hairs one hour before washing them for good lusture and to coverthe damaged parts.
2. Take iron and zinc supplements.
3. Avoid exposure to direct sun for long durations.
4. Keep your hairs 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 energise 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.
