Excess hairfall post partum

2017-12-12 04:59:32
I have a 4 month old and since a few weeks i'm having massive hairfall. I am breastfeeding my toddler and intend to do so for 2 more months. Can I use biotin tablets as a remedy? Kindly suggest dosage. Will it have any negative effect on the breast milk? Thank you.

Greetings. Biotin is safe during feeding. Its normal to have harifall within first six months of delivery. I am sorry, prescription cannot be issued on this forum. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru
