I am experiencing hair fall from past 3 months. Earlier I went on a 700 calorie diet. Now i'm taking full diet. And someone recommend follihair and vitamin d tablets for hair loss control but it's not working. I've been consuming follihair for one month but no improvement.

Hi lybrate-userthere are other causes of hair fall also which we have to look for like irregular menses, thyroid disorders, low hemoglobin levels, stress etc etc. And even there are different disorders of hair which lead to hairfall, so first proper diagnosis of disease is important.

Good evening. Sudden increase in hair fall, 3-4 months after possible triggers such as - physical trauma, psychological stress, extreme diet changes etc can lead to condition known as telogen effluvium. It may be the cause of your sudden hairfall, if the timing of the diet change correlates with the hair fall as mentioned above. Any hair treatment protocol takes around 3 months to show results regardless of how treatment is taken.

Only taking follihair tablet will not help. Need to add some good anti hairloss oil, shampoo and some solution as well for regrowth. Crash diet might have triggered the hair loss in your case.
