Hi doctor (tricologist) i'm 36 female mother of 2 kids. I faced a lot of hair fall after my first pregnancy and now the same situation after the second one. The second one is 2.10 years old and I have crown hair baldness. You can even see my scalp under light. I'm using hairjoy 5% solution (twice a day) and follihair tables (once a day) since 3 months. Initially it gave me good results but now a days (since a month) I have started exercising and I sweat a lot from head to toe. My hair would be dripping wet after the workout. Recently I have observed tat there s no tiny hair regrowth which was used to be there before and I feel my hair thinner. Kindly suggest wat could be the reason.

Hello Lybrate user, there are many causes of hair fall in females, merely using minoxidil and hair supplements for long time is not going to get back your hairs. First we have to rule out all possible causes of hairfall in your case. Correct diagnosis is very important for effective treatment.

Hi as per my advice you should switch to better options than minoxidil 5%.but need to taper minoxidil and then stop don't switch abruptly. U need frequent hair wash due to excess sweat and should go for some blood tests as well before proceeding further.
