<s>[INST] Hello doctor! I m having very severe hair fall for the past six months! The hairfall is more especially when I m applying oil n after shampooing ma hair! And I had typhoid three months which made ma hairfall even worse:( can u suggest me a remedy for this? [/INST] Hello, Severe hair fall post typhoid is known as telogen effluvium wherein the hair gets transformed from growing phase (anagen phase) to shedding phase (telogen phase). This would recover gradually over 4- 6 months. I suggest you take an oral biotin supplement once a day for a few months. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Kakkar S., Dermatologist </s>
