Hair Fall, Dry Scalp. Tried Different Shampoos, Hairdressers. Taking Iron Tablets. Remedy?
My hair has been falling out from the root for almost a year, my scalp is also tender, did a blood test and everything is fine except that i lack iron but have been on iron tabs for almost a month the tenderness stopped for awhile and less hair was falling out but it has started to fall out and get tender again. I have changed shampoos and hairdresser, started to wash my hair every week, went to the dermatologist and got a anti-dandruff shampoo. i really dont know what else to do. HELP!!!!

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Since , you haven't mentioned the exact report of hemoglobin level or iron level.
Pain in the scalp may be due to infection or dermatitis as physical examination reveals , what is actually. treatment for good hair growth as following,
Wash hairs with savlon solution.
Dry hairs with drier , not with towel .
Apply minoxidil+tretinoin+azelaic acid solution twice in day .
Take tablets containing ( biotin=calcium pantothenate+para-aminobenzoic acid+zinc oxide ).
1 tablet twice in a day .
Take this treatment for 6-12 months months .
You will notice the difference within 3 months.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
