[|Human|] Hi.I recently noticed 2 months ago that I have lost a considerable amount of hair in the past six months. I will be 19 this year and have just recently moved to Mumbai from Qatar.Mumbai is a tropical wet and dry climate and Qatar is mostly hot, ranging from 30 to 50 degrees celsius in the summers.I used to have a thick head of hair but now it has lost a lot of volume, specially in the front and a bit in the top.I use shampoo regularly and am a non vegetarian. I also drink roughly 6 glasses of water a day.I also had Dengue last year and Chicken Pox 2 months ago.I would like to know if it is reversibal and will my hair ever grow back to its original form.Thank You
[|AI|]  Hi, It may be halogen effluvium. The cause may be the viral fevers you had. Anxiety and worries may be other factors.  Consult the dermatologist to get investigations to rule out other diseases like anemia, vitamins deficiencies, thyroid dysfunction and other internal diseases.  I would suggest you take vitamin E 400 mg, tab biotin 10 mg, multivitamin cap, etc., daily for a few months to a few years.  And underlying disease may be treated. Apply minoxidil 5% solution twice a day in the Chat Doctor.  If there is Dan
