Hairfall due to stopping of regesterone
Hi.
I have been diagnosed with PCOS at 14 yrs. I have been on hormonal therapy since I don't even remember anymore. It's been a tiring journey. I have stopped taking it now. I want to treat PCOS naturally. I am facing a lot of hairfall because I stopped taking oral hormones. Can anyone help me how I can stop this?

PCOS, is a syndrome and multiple factors play a role. Medications are a part of the treatment but exercise and a healthy lifestyle is most important. Hair fall issue might be related to this or can be due to other factors as well. It's better to get Thyroid, and blood counts evaluated. Specific treatment has to be given for hair loss. If underlying problem is present then that has to be treated adequately
