Hi ,
I am facing hair loss since couple of time, I consulted a Dermatologist and he suspected I have low s.ferririne level ,after test it was 15
.97 and within three months it rose to 72 after taking supplement prescribed by Doctor. But still I am facing hair loss ,current I am taking Dutasteride 0.5 in morning everday since 1 month prescribed by doctor along with Iron supplement and applying minoxidil 2% twice a day. But I am noticing tremendous hair fall since last 2 weeks .
I think it's because of Dutasteride supplement.
So is it normal condition ? As I read on internet that shedding is normal while taking Dutasteride for some weeks.
Can anybody suggest me what should I do?
