Question : Hi,
I've been having abnormal hairfall for past 3 weeks and it does seem to be reducing.
Could you let me know what I could do to get over it.
Thanks
Brief Answer:
treat the underlying cause
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The hair fall could be due to acute stress in the past 3 weeks.
If it is stress, you must get rid of the stress.
Other causes are low Hemoglobin, thyroid dysfunction that needs to be treated accordingly to get over the hairfall.
I would suggest you to get a complete blood count test done along with Thyroid function test.
Regards,
