Don't match
Hi
A doctor is talking to a patient and is enumerating different remedies. At the end says:
These are the most common remedies for hormonal hair loss. A professional homeopath can help if these don’t match, and your other hormonal symptoms are likely to get better at the same time.
I understand that "don't match" means that if you have different symptoms (then the ones these remedies are normally used for) then you should try different remedies?

A specific homeopathic remedy that matches your symptoms is likely to give more lasting relief than one of the combination remedies mentioned above.
It seems to me that "if these don't match" refers to symptoms just like "matches" in the sentence above. I didn't mention that but the doctor enumerated different symptoms as well, like for example:
Sepia has wor

It wasn't clear to me in your original post that you meant .. . . . don't match your symptoms. It's an unusual enough thing to say that you'll have to make that clear.
