There are many reasons for hair fall. So first and foremost we have to find the cause with the help of detailed history and examination. Some of the common causes are nutritional deficiency, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia or patterned baldness, hypothyroidism, telogen effluvium etc. Unless we find and treat the cause there is no point in giving non specific treatment. Oils or shampoos do not have any effect on hair growth as they are not absorbed in the skin. Please call me or send photographs using online consult option for proper diagnosis and detailed prescription.

Antifungal shampoo make hairs dry. Its not a problem try to use it once in a week.few medicated antifungal shampoos contain zinc pyrithone they wont make your hair dry. You can use any baby shampoos, they have mild pH. Dont use shampoo too much if you have dry hairs yiu can use plain good conditioners availaible in market. Best do some blood tests for hair fall
