Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment.

Hello, Yes, at 25 years of age, this hair loss is definitely REVERSIBLE, and healthy regrowth is completely possible! Looking at your photos and history, your hair follicles are facing a double challenge right now: 1. Low Ferritin (17.8 ng/mL): Even though a lab may call 17.8 "normal range", science clearly shows that for active hair regrowth, your Serum Ferritin (stored iron) MUST be above 50–70 ng/mL. At 17.8, your hair roots simply do not have enough cellular fuel to grow thick hair. 2. PCOS Factor: PCOS causes hormonal sensitivity (DHT effect) on scalp hair roots, which leads to gradual thinning and widening of the center parting line. Good News: Your hair roots are not dead; they are simply dormant and miniaturized. Once we correct these two root causes, regrowth starts naturally. Immediate Steps You Should Take: • Internal Ferritin Correction: Consult a doctor to start an easily absorbable iron formulation combined with Vitamin C (avoid random OTC iron without guidance to prevent stomach upset). • Natural DHT Control: Add 1 spoon of roasted pumpkin seeds daily to your diet. They act as a natural blocker against hair-thinning hormones. • Daily Habit: Do not comb wet hair, avoid tight hairstyles, and reduce refined sugar/junk food which spikes PCOS hormones. Please share your complete reports (CBC, Thyroid, Vitamin D3) in a detailed consultation so we can prescribe a targeted iron-restoration and follicular regrowth protocol tailored to your PCOS.

Low ferritin at 17.8 and PCOS are both well-known, common causes of hair thinning, so this combination explains a lot of what the photos show. Hair fall from these two causes is usually reversible once both are properly treated.
Next Steps
Ask your gynaecologist about iron supplementation to raise your ferritin, and get your thyroid and androgen levels checked if that hasn't been done, since those also affect PCOS-related hair fall. Regrowth typically takes several months once the underlying levels improve.
Health Tips
Don't start iron tablets on your own, since too much iron causes its own problems. Let your doctor decide the right dose and duration.
