Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing to us.

Yes, you can take Biotin forte once a day for 2-3 months.

I would like to know few more details:

Since when are you having hair loss problem?

Around how many hairs fall in a day?

Do you dandruff over scalp?

Have you checked your hemoglobin levels recently? If yes, what is the value?

Kindly get back to me with details.
