Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 24 year old female and weigh 114 lbs. I am not on any regular medicines. I am a healthy woman. In my eyebrows, I have one strand of hair that grow long to around 0.5 inches and it has changed color to blond. My natural hair color is black. Is this normal?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com. In your paternal family, is there any history or case of vitiligo (in which a person develops white patches or graying of hair)? Right now, I can say that you can get it trimmed for now. If there is a genetic history of vitiligo in your family, then there can be many chances for you to develop such things, and may notice it next time on the hair of other areas of the body. For now, you can take tablet Follihair (Biotin) multivitamin tablet once in a day for one month and get your CBC (complete blood count) done.
