On discontinuing oral contraceptives (“the pill”), the estrogen level (female sex hormone) in the body can drop sharply. Similarly to after a birth, this can cause an imbalance in the hair growth cycle and hair can enter the telogen phase too soon. This hair usually falls out 2-3 months later.

Which triggers can cause diffuse hair loss?
Diffuse hair loss can have many causes. The most common are:
- Stress
- Illness
- Medications
- Hormonal fluctuations
- Age
- Diets and malnutrition
Regardless of the cause, Pantogar® capsules can be used to treat diffuse hair loss with good results.
How do you treat diffuse hair loss?
Diffuse hair loss occurs when the hair growth cycle is disrupted. The aim of treatment must therefore be to restore balance to the growth cycle. This is where Pantogar® capsules come in: Pantogar® capsules contain a unique, highly concentrated active substance complex which actively stops hair loss by increasing the metabolic activity of the hair root. The hair cells are stimulated to form new cells, and the hair returns to the growth phase. Over time this restores the natural ratio between shedding telogen hair and growing anagen hair.
Why should diffuse hair loss be treated medically?
Diffuse hair loss can have many causes. But with the right diagnosis and suitable therapy, hair loss can be treated well. Ask your physician or pharmacist how Pantogar® capsules can help you to treat your hair loss effectively.
How can I tell if I suffer from diffuse hair loss?
Diffuse hair loss refers to the loss of over 100 hairs per day evenly throughout the scalp and leading to a reduction in hair volume.
Can men also take Pantogar® capsules?
Of course! Men can take Pantogar® capsules as well as women. However, men suffer much more commonly from hereditary hair loss, for which Pantogar® capsules should be used as a combination therapy with the medications recommended for this.
Can Pantogar® capsules be taken during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
New mothers are known to have particularly beautiful hair. However, hair loss often occurs after pregnancy because of hormonal changes. During pregnancy and breastfeeding you should ask your doctor before taking Pantogar® capsules.
Can children take Pantogar® capsules?
No specific tests have been conducted on the tolerability of Pantogar® capsules in children. Therefore, they are not recommended for children under 12 years.
Is there a reduced maintenance dose after the intensive treatment with Pantogar® capsules?
The efficacy of the recommended dose of 3 capsules per day was proven in numerous studies. For maintenance it is advisable to continue taking 1-2 capsules per day.
Can I change the dosing scheme and e.g. take 2 capsules in the morning and 1 capsule in the evening?
It is not advisable to change the dosing scheme, as Pantogar® capsules also contain water-soluble B vitamins. The body can only store these in limited amounts. Therefore, it is better to spread the doses evenly over the day.
