Not to worry.. good improvement possible.. however treatment depends on the grade...You are suffering from hormonal changes causing Androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please send photos of your head, by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.

If you do not have any other underlying medical problem then procapil then 3-4 months treatment should stop hair fall.
I will advise for online consultation for further management

Hello! There are several causes for hairloss; and depending on the cause - the duration of treatment is determined. a prudent approach would be to figure out the cause, which can help us determine how long the treatment is necessary, and if we can substitute procapil for a less expensive medicine. You can go for an online consult to discuss with a dermatologist all that I’ve mentioned above. Hope this answers your question! Have a good day :)
