I'm really worried because I've been experiencing a lot of hair fall lately. My hair volume has noticeably decreased over the past two months. What should I do to stop this hair fall?

Hair fall can be caused by various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or genetics. To help with your hair fall, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on your scalp. Additionally, taking biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can also help improve hair growth. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair.

I'm in my second week of taking isotretinoin at 40mg a day, and I've noticed some whiteheads popping up on my cheeks. Does isotretinoin actually help with getting rid of these, or should I be prepared for more breakouts before it gets better? Curious to know what I should expect in the coming weeks.
