Hello Doctor, I have lost lot of hair on my crown, now my scalp is easily visible. My problem is not hereditary, everyone in my family has good dense hair. I am 28 and getting married in next 3 months. I am planning to take REVILUS tablets, eat Walnuts everyday and apply a Walnut oil or Saw Palmetto oil on the affected area regularly. Will this help?

Hi. Revilus is biotin supplement and biotin supplement is going to work only when you have biotin deficiency. However, it is not harmful if you take it for say 1 month. However, successful treatment requires diagnosis. From your description, i think you are a male and have lost hair preferentially in croqn area. Right? If so, it is androgenetic alopecia and adding a minoxidil 5% lotion would benefit you a lot. Apply 1 ml of minxodil lotion twice daily on dry scalp (not hair). Hope it helps.
