Health Queries
I have PCOD and am experiencing heavy hair fall. What supplements should I take?
Dr Bayyarapu Kumar
M Pharmacy
Hair fall in PCOD is usually driven by hormonal changes rather than a single nutrient deficiency. While certain supplements may support hair health, the right choice depends on your individual needs and should only be started after a medical evaluation. Your doctor may recommend tests to check for deficiencies or imbalances before advising any supplement. Alongside this, lifestyle measures such as maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight management play a key role in reducing hair fall. Avoid starting multiple supplements on your own, as unnecessary intake can cause side effects.
I am 32 years old and experiencing rapid hair fall, white hair, and spots on my face. What could be the cause of these problems, and what treatment should I take?
Dr G Reddy
M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)
Rapid hair fall, early white hair, and facial spots at 32 can be due to stress, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, or skin conditions. Eating a balanced diet, managing stress, and using proper skincare can help. Consult a dermatologist to identify the exact cause and get targeted treatment.
I have had severe hair fall for 8 months, and my blood tests are normal, except that I did not check biotin levels. Can I use Apollo Life Biotin 5000 mcg tablets to control hair fall?
Dr Bayyarapu Kumar
M Pharmacy
Biotin tablets help only when hair fall is caused by a true biotin deficiency, which is rare, so taking high dose biotin without confirming a deficiency may not improve your hair fall and can interfere with some lab tests. Since long-lasting hair fall often has other causes such as genetics, stress, scalp issues, hormonal changes, or nutritional gaps, it is better to check your scalp and hair condition with a dermatologist or trichologist first, so the appropriate treatment can be started rather than relying solely on biotin.
After coming to the hostel, I’ve been experiencing severe hair fall. Around 75% of my hair has fallen out from the upper part of my head. The main reason seems to be dandruff—I feel like thick skin is peeling off only from the affected area. I’m using an anti-dandruff shampoo. Will it help?
Dr Bayyarapu Kumar
M Pharmacy
Severe hair loss affecting around 75% of the upper scalp is abnormal and needs urgent evaluation by a dermatologist. Flaky or peeling scalp skin may indicate seborrheic dermatitis or severe dandruff, which can improve with medicated anti-dandruff shampoo, though this alone won’t stop hair loss. Poor nutrition, common with limited diets like hostel food, can weaken hair due to deficiencies in protein, iron, zinc, biotin, and vitamins, so correcting these through a balanced diet or supplements as advised by a doctor is important for regrowth. Stress, illness, or sudden lifestyle changes can cause temporary shedding (telogen effluvium), which often improves once the body adjusts. Gentle hair care, adequate hydration, sufficient sleep, and a healthy lifestyle all support hair health.
