B12 deficiency
I was having lot of hair loss last year, I consulted a doctor ,she adviced me do some blood tests.In that report there was b12 deficiency it was very low..so I was medicated with b12 injections .. after that levels were increased but unfortunately after some weeks levels decreased gradually.. after that again medicated with injections and folic acid tablets. But the same was repeated after some weeks.. I browsed in net for some foods rich in b12, but to my surprise there are not many foods for vegetarians.. recently also i got my test done the levels were around 300 ..please suggest me remedy for root cause

hello from the Test tesult your B 12 level is normal at this time 300 ( 200- 600 pg/ ml, normal range). you need 1- 3 micrograms of cobalamin a day, vegies and fruits are free from cobalamin but you get from meat sources or dairy products( milk or cheese). body stores of cobalamin are of the order of 2- 3mg, sufficient for 3- 4 yrs if supplies are completely cut off. I suppose you drink milk in your tea or seperatly, unless you are allergic to it. you can  get B 12 ( cobalamin ) from milk. around 500 ml of cow's milk gives daily needs of B 12. milk is good source of B12. you can take milk in your daily Tea you drink( i assume) ,if you dont like drinking just milk alone. There are other causes of low B 12 absorption. one of the common is in people using PPE ie drugs like pantropazole etc for blocking acid production.
Next Steps
get a full CBC count done, including MCV test. Drink cows  milk , around 250 ml( a glass full milk)  of milk a day gives approximately half of daily needs of B 12.( evidence based practice) Consult a haematologist if you keep getting B12 deficiency states, to rule out any non dietry cause of B12 def. hope this helps you. Thsnks for your query.
