Have low iron & D3 caused my hair loss?

Patient's Query

I am facing hair loss problem since 5 years 6 months ago I consulted a dermatologist after tests I have low iron and d3 levels I used tablets 2 months and I used minoxidil bit I faced un wanted ahir so i stopped that topical minoxidil my hair was so long but now it almost damaged

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

The hair loss you are going through is because you have low ferritin and low vitamin D levels in your body. This will also lead to your hair becoming fragile and eventually falling out. Whenever you try stopping treatments suddenly, you will face more hair loss. Be patient and at the same time try to take your iron and D3 supplements regularly. Talk to the dermatologist again for his contribution. It takes time for the hair to grow, so try to remain calm and give your hair a chance.

Hello doctor , a cold sore under nose has left dark mark what to do regarding it

Female | 26

You have a dark mark left after a cold sore under your nose. A herpes simplex virus causes a cold sore. The sore is a part of the healing process, but it can leave behind a dark spot. This is the usual case. To help it fade, you can try using a cream with ingredients like vitamin C or kojic acid. Sunscreen use is always the first and essential skincare routine. With time, it should get better.

Small Nodule on eyebrow

Male | 3 month

A tiny bump near your eyebrow is probably a cyst or a skin tag, which are common and not usually a concern. They can form from a clogged oil gland or a blocked hair follicle. If it’s not bothering you, it’s okay to leave it alone. However, if it grows bigger, changes color, or starts hurting, it’s best to have it checked out.

Male | 16

The Acnestar gel 22g is not suitable for treating dark spots on the face and only used in the treatment of acne. The dark spots on the face can be caused by different factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes or aging of skin. A dermatologist should be consulted for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Hi Doctor, I am suffering from skin itching and rashes in my groin and other private areas from a very long time. Especially in summer the itching intensifies and it's unbearable. Is there a permenante solution or treatment for this in ayurveda. Please help. I can consult with you in video conferencing.

Male | 46

Itchy, rashy skin down there­ is no fun, especially in the he­at. This could be jock itch - a fungal thing. Nature's reme­dies like nee­m, turmeric, and aloe may help. Stay away from tight clothe­s. Keep the are­a dry and airy. Eat healthy foods.
