Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Doctor, I am suffering from hair fall/thinning for the last 7 years. I have never taken proper care due to the busy schedule, however now I feel its too late. I have been trying different oils, home remedies etc. however there is no improvement. The fair has become massive for the last couple of months. Here are some of my blood test report. TDH (C.L.I.A) = 5.92 uIU/ml 25-OH Vitamin D = 4.64 ng/ml Vitamin B-12 = 269 pg/ml What should I do ?
You are vitamin-D deficient. Vitamin-D 60k can be taken one capsule or sachet once a week for 4 to 6 weeks. It can be taken with milk. Apart from the given values, blood hemoglobin, thyroid levels should be taken. Any scalp conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, fungal infections, alopecia areata, should be ruled out. Nutritional diet intake is a must. Vegetables and fruits should be consumed regularly. In case of early onset baldness, hair transplant can be considered.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
