Asked By:Shams44us in Dubai, AE

Hi, I had my hair transplant 45 days ago for 5000 grafts. And from yesterday I have started gym. Is it okay to do daily 1 hr gym? I usually do 20 mins cardio and then weights training, which is a bit high intensity where the heart rate reaches at 160-180.is it going to impact the grafted area or further hair loss?
