Severe hairfall issue
Hi, I am suffering from severe hairfall from last 1 month. I had a history of severe dengue fever around 2 months ago. Also I got my hair treated with keratine treatment a month ago. But now I am facing severe hairfall and I don't exactly know what is the reason for this hairloss. Is it because of dengue or keratine treatment? Please help me with the suggestion to stop hairfall and what should I do further.

Hello. There can be multiple causes of hair fall. Recent stress to body in the form of dengue fever can very well lead to acute hair fall. If that is the only cause of your hair fall then it will come back in the next 3-4 months once your body recovers from the stress caused by the illness. You will need some supplements to aid in the recovery.
However if there are other causes then it needs to be evaluated thoroughly. You can consult a dermatologist near your place.
