Why is my hair falling out after weight loss?
Patient's Query
I(22f) lost 20 kgs in 2022 and since then I am suffering from hairfall. I got blood test 2 months ago and I was deficient in vit d(9.44mg/ml) and iron(30). Doctor prescribed 60000iu shots twice weekly and a tablet for daily with additional 1000iu. Also taking iron supplement. For 2-3 weeks ny hair fall came down to 10-15 strans but slowly started increasing and now at 2 months it's more than 100 per day. Before starting supplements it was 40-50. What happened?
Answered by Dr. Anju Methil
The pills might be starting to work. Not having enough vitamin D or iron can make your hair fall out. You may not get all the nutrients you need from them for a while, even if you’re beginning to see things get better. These are some things that need time. Remember not to be anxious and impatient since new hair will only grow slowly. In case everything remains unchanged, contact a dermatologist for more instructions.
