Immense hairfall after Doxy
I was on Doxy-100 for 50 days to treat my acne. As soon as I started taking Doxy, my hairfall increased immensely. I stopped taking Doxy last month but the hairfall has still continued. What should I do?

Not concerned with that...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.

Sometimes taking antibiotics for long time could lead to hairloss due loss of absorption of nutrients.
Kindly take a detailed consultation. Meds can help the condition.
