Hi,
I am loosing lot of hair. Over a period of 4 years I have lost half of my hair. Now they look brittle and lifeless. I have tried everything a dermatologist proscribed. But nothing worked. I am having a balanced diet and exercising regularly. I took A to Z vitamins supplements for two months. Also from past few years I have acne problem. My reports are normal and I do it on annual basis.
Please guide me what can I do to improve the health of my hair and skin.
Thank you so much for your time.

This description fits in female pattern baldness which if not treated can cause serious thinning in the crown area. Also, accompanying acne creates suspicion of underlying polycystic ovaries diases. There are many reasons for hairfall or thinning of hair on the scalp. 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. Moreover, you should never self treat with anything. Please visit my clinic or send photographs using online consult option for proper diagnosis and detailed prescription.
