Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 34 year old female. I am suffering from severe hair loss. Almost three-quarters of my hair I lost in 15 days. I have severe itchiness on the scalp with a sensation of something crawling on my scalp and body. But, my mother says nothing can be found on the head, except some traces of dandruff. Every now and then, I suffer from a skin problem of red bumps on the body. Please help me.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your case. A sudden hair loss may be due to many causes like severe dieting, mental or physical stress, pregnancy or any illness. Please evaluate yourself if you have suffered from any of the above recently. You need to understand that hair regrowth takes some time at least two to three months. Improve your diet. Avoid any stress. Take capsule Perfectil plus (Biotin, Silicon, Omega acids, etc.) one capsule two times daily for a month.

Take care.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
