Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Hello .. I understand your concern. See medications have certain side effects, so ask your doctor about your hair fall problem. And one more point hair fall is caused by some other psychological factors also, so consult a psychologist also for help.
Stay happy and healthy.

Hi... Epitril is a benzodiazepine. It works by increasing the action of a chemical messenger (GABA) which suppresses the abnormal and excessive activity of the nerve cells in the brain.
Please consult your Psychiatrist to understand if it can interfere with your PCOD condition/treatment.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist and start taking Counselling Sessions for Anxiety.
