I don't know the answer to your specific question. But I wonder, are these your only supplements? I would think your body (and hair) would want a balance of a variety of things.
In addition to regular daily multi-vit/min, I take zinc (100mg), silica
(5 mg) and a "hair vitamin" which has a mix of vit/min/herbs, including
biotin (400mcg), MSM (67 mg), and B-complex (approx 500% RDA of B-1,
B-2, B-6, B-12). The silica in particular helps lessen fallout,
which helps me fight the MPB.
You have to be careful how much vitamin E you take, but 800IU a day is alright I think. In addition to that and the biotin I'd recommend the things Dave mentioned.
