Eating rosemary, oat extract and horsetail strengthen the immune system. Apart from it all proper nutritional diets are necessary to take. When it comes to medicines most people prefer herbal treatments. Saw palmetto (fruit of a palm tree), nettle root, pumpkin, apple cider, green tea, aloe Vera, olive oil are some of them.

Regular exercise, scalp massage with coconut or almond or jojoba oil, avoiding overusing hair coloring and using hair dryer or curling etc. Medicines are also there for hair loss treatments but they are mostly for men- finasteride or dutasteride. But minoxidil can be given to women too. Medicines are potentially dangerous for pregnant women and hence by other options as hair transplantation and weaving are more preferred. Laser treatment is yet another way but is dangerous as it is harmful for eyes. Herbal shampoos as Saini and conditioners are also recommended.
