I suffer from severe hair fall, I m also hypo thyroid positive. Have tried lot of oils and herbal shampoos but of no use. Once I was recommended minoxidil 5% and after using it for a month the hair fall reduced a lot. But once I stopped using it, the problem started again. And the worst was that I had lot of hair grown on my chin. Please suggest something which is quick and lasting and has no side effects.

Hi lybrate-user, hypothyroidism is known to cause hairloss. Firstly I suggest you take medicine for your thyroid. Hairfall has many causes: 1) anemia 2) experimenting with your hair like blow dry, colouring 3) imbalanced diet or a diet low in protein 4) stress, prolonged exposure to sun 5) lack of sleep or irregular timings of sleep. 6) post typhoid, hypothyroidism. Tips to avoid hairloss: 1) do not comb on wet hair. 2) oil your hair regularly. 3) destress and sleep 8 hrs daily. 4) do not blow dry or experiment with hair like hair straightening. 5) balanced and high protein diet. 6) use homoeopathic jaborandi hair oil by sbl pharmacy.
