Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

I understand that hair loss can be very problematic. If you are more worried about any particular part, then send me a picture of it. In general, female lose hair and experience of a reduction in density, but the headline is intact. There can be a lot of reasons for hair loss like:

Improper hair routine and hard (salt) water.
Have a good intake of fresh fruits and maintain vitamin D3 levels.
Optimum zinc and biotin levels are key.
Use a broad bristle comb and avoid over-strenuous combing of hair.
Never shampoo in dry hair.

As for medication, take capsule Keraglo Eva (gamma Lenolenic acid) once every day. Tablet Neurobion forte (multivitamin) one every day for 6 months. Hair need a long-term treatment so should follow it with some patience.

Thank you for consulting me.
