How much biotin should i take for hair loss?

I researched this a lot when my hair was falling out in chunks. My dermatologist told me that unless you have a proven biotin deficiency, taking high doses like 5000mcg or 10000mcg won't do much and might just cause cystic acne. He recommended a balanced multi-vitamin with just 30mcg of biotin, which is the daily recommended value.

Beta, in our days we didn't have these fancy biotin pills and our hair was so thick. It is mostly about eating a good diet with milk, nuts, and green vegetables, and keeping yourself stress-free. Don't worry too much, just eat healthy and ask a doctor before starting any chemical tablets.

I used to think hair loss was just about vitamins, but poor blood circulation and stress play a huge role. I started doing regular cardio and head-down yoga poses alongside a clean diet, and my hair fall reduced naturally. Don't just depend on biotin pills; focus on active living too.

I can only share what worked for me, but when I took 2500 mcg of biotin daily for three months, I didn't see much change in my hair fall. My doctor later found out I was actually deficient in Vitamin D3. Once I corrected that, my hair improved. So biotin might not be the answer for everyone.
