I m 30 yrs old unmarried girl.I m suffering from diffuse hair thinning from 7 yrs.i tried many treatment like homeopathy and dermatologist as well. From past 7 months I m taking prp session and using morr 5% at night after 10 min of folifast lotion and vighan serum in morning.taking renocia tablet once daily after 10 min of meal. My hair fall was controlled from past 1 yr without any sign of regrowth. But now the problem is that I m facing excessive hair fall from past 1 month , it's about 150+ hairs daily which make me worried bcz I never faced such hair fall in m life. I visited my doctor he said it may b bcz sometime our hair cells getting week bcz of less of nutrition so he gave one more session on Thursday.. I checked my thyroid and hemoglobin but both reports were normal.plz suggest me something.Shoul I wait or do some test.

Diffuse thinning of hairs can be a feature of Telogen effluvium or Female androgenetic alopecia. In female type of androgenetic alopecia frontal and parietal  thinning with reduced density of hairs is the feature. In Telogen effluvium, hair fall is more than normal and there is some mild uniform reduction in density. While Telogen effluvium rather responds easily to treatment, the androgenetic alopecia is rather difficult.
