Hairfall in 5 year old daughter
I'm asking this for my daughter. Recently I observed that he is having hair fall whenever I dab through her hair I find 2-3 hair strand on my hand. Is this something ok or to be worried about. She suffered acute pneumonia in feb and had iron and calcium for 2months after that.
When I wash her hair then there is no hair fall untill I put oil on her scalp.
I(her mom) recently discovered that I have alopecia areta.
Should I take her to the doctor? Please suggest.
