Curated by Dr Radha Shah, Apollo Hairfall Check Essential comprises of tests such as Ferritin, Vitamin B-12, Insulin, CBC and Thyroid Profile. These tests can identify the underlying cause of hair fall in both men and women. The package is recommended for everyone suffering from significant hair fall.

Losing your luscious locks can be stressful. Individuals who pride themselves on their appearance and long, lustrous hair may feel conscious about hair loss.

There are many different hair loss patterns, including hair thinning, sudden hair loosening, or circular bald batches. While some amount of hair loss and hair thinning, around 50-100 hair strands, is normal for every person, if it's happening in excess, it's a thing of concern.

Hair loss in women can be due to several reasons, such as:

  • Severe stress
  • Ageing
  • Rapid, unintentional weight loss
  • Radiation or chemotherapy
  • The side effect of medicines for heart problems, birth control, gout and depression
  • Hair trauma due to tight hairstyles
  • Skin conditions such as folliculitis or psoriasis
  • Medical conditions like major infections or thyroid troubles
  • Poor nutrition and low protein or iron levels
  • Baldness due to hormonal or genetic factors

If you are worried about your voluminous and consistent hair fall, talk to your physician about it. They are likely to run a hair fall test to determine the cause of the hair loss.

Apollo 24/7 offers extensive tests which comprises of tests:

  • Thyroid Profile: This test measures your thyroid levels. If there is a severe imbalance in T3, T4 and TSH levels, it can cause hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism. This, inadvertently, paves the way for troubles like hair loss. You will note uniformly sparse hair growth.
  • Vitamin B12: This vitamin is vital for hair growth and maintains a necessary RBC level. If these oxygen-carrying cells are low, it can leave your scalp undernourished. Eventually, your locks will become brittle and weak, causing worrisome hair fall. So, this test measures the amount of vitamin B12 in your bloodstream.
  • Complete blood count (CBC): This test checks for haemoglobin, PCV, MCV, MCH, MHCH, RBC count, RDW, differential leucocytic count, total leucocyte count and absolute leucocyte count. If any of these components are found in imbalance, it can be the leading cause of hair fall and baldness. 

Book the essential hair fall test today, exclusively from Apollo 24/7. This hair loss test at home will be conducted from the comfort of your living room, so it's quick, convenient and easy!
