Excessive hair fall
I have PCOD and thyroid. I am taking disne 35 and medicine for thyroid.I am having hair fall since two years. Since one month I am having excessive hair fall. 300-400 hair strands per day. In one month my scalp has become visible. There is no way to hide it. I was using minoxidil 5% and still I am. Is there any chance of growth of the hair which I lost in one month? I am really depressed and it is severely affecting my quality of life.

Regrowth is possible, if u have roots.. for proper guidance for regrowth proper consultation is required, with ruling out of all the causes causing hair fall for u and to act accordingly. For hair fall, there are many causes like dandruff, some nutritional deficiencies, and involvement of genetics. So take proper consultation, first start with the medical management, to see any results u have to wait for 3 months in case of hair fall.
