Hello dear See hair fall in this season is attributed to increased fungal infection or there can be seasonal allergy. Iam suggesting some medications and precautions Kindly follow them for 1 month Minoxidil (2% or 5%) for hair gain OTC solution to be given topically
Finasteride on recommendation only by dermatologist Biotin- medications for growth Ketoconazole 2% (Nizoral) – antifungal shampoo twice a day
Selenium Sulfide (Selsun Blue) – antifungal shampoo
Clotrimazole or Miconazole – antifungal creams for topical use In addition following preventive measures are must Avoid excess moisture and keep the infected completely dey If possible dry with clean towel Have good exposure of sunlight Apply phenol solution regularly in the house floors Avoid exposure to pollen or contaminated area Lastly,Use bhringraj or onion oil for head massage Apply aquaphor moisturizer twice a day for 1 month Instead of minidoxil,prefer rosemary oil In case of no improvement, consult dermatologist in person for better clarification Hopefully you recover soon Regards
Hi Muskan,
First of all, exact cause of hairfall should find out. For that,
Check inside first: Get blood tests: Hemoglobin, Thyroid (TSH), Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Iron studies.
Daily routine: • Use mild shampoo (like Ketoconazole once a week if dandruff, or gentle sulfate-free shampoo otherwise). • Apply coconut/argan/almond oil once or twice a week (avoid overnight if scalp oily). • Don’t comb wet hair, avoid tight hairstyles. • If hair fall is severe (clumps daily), a dermatologist may prescribe minoxidil lotion or supplements.
🔹 For Skin (Dullness, Whiteheads, Dark Circles)
✨ Daily Skin Care Routine: • Cleanser: Gentle face wash twice daily. • Exfoliation: Use a salicylic acid face wash or serum (2%) 2–3 times/week for whiteheads. • Moisturizer: Lightweight gel/cream to maintain glow. • Sunscreen: Very important! Use SPF 30+ every morning (prevents dullness & pigmentation).
✨ For Dark Circles: • Sleep 7–8 hrs. • Cold cucumber/green tea bags over eyes for 10 min. • Use under-eye cream with Vitamin C, niacinamide, or caffeine.
✨ For Bright Skin: • Vitamin C serum in the morning. • Hydrating diet: drink enough water, eat fruits (papaya, pomegranate, orange). • Avoid too much junk, sugar, and fried foods.

Severe hair fall with visible scalp, dull skin, whiteheads, and dark circles often point to nutritional deficiencies, stress, or hormonal imbalance. A healthy routine with iron-rich foods, protein, hydration, regular sleep, and sunscreen use helps both skin and hair, but medicines may be needed for lasting results. Please consult a Dermatologist to check for anemia, thyroid, vitamin deficiencies, and get the right treatment for hair regrowth and skin care.
Hello Muskan, You have multiple symptoms related to your skin and hair.
Before starting any treatment, get these tests done. 1. CBC 2. Thyroid profile 3. serum Vit-D3 4. serum Vit-B12 5. serum Iron
Maintain a healthy lifestyle by adequate sleep, reducing stress, balanced diet including seasonal fruits. Consult a dermatologist for further treatment as skin and hair problems need specific treatment and therapies.
Take care !
Experiencing significant hair fall and dull skin may be linked to several underlying factors ranging from nutritional deficiencies to stress or hormonal imbalances. For hair fall, ensure your diet is rich in essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin D. Incorporate foods like leafy greens, nuts, seeds, fish, and eggs into your meals. It might be beneficial to have your blood levels checked for deficiencies or hormonal issues like thyroid problems which can contribute to hair loss. Regular scalp massages can improve circulation and promote hair growth; however, if the problem persists, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation or treatment options such as topical minoxidil. Moving onto skin concerns, dullness and whiteheads can often result from inadequate exfoliation or hydration. Consider using a gentle exfoliant containing salicylic acid to address whiteheads, and moisturize regularly to maintain skin barrier function. For dark circles, aim for sufficient sleep and consider using products with caffeine or vitamin K which can help reduce their appearance. Sunscreen is also crucial as UV exposure can worsen skin pigmentation and aging. If after these interventions, you see no improvement, a dermatologist can run more specialized tests or suggest treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy. Always be cautious and consult professionals before initiating new treatments or using new skin care products, especially with sensitive skin or allergies.
