Hairfall help!

Question

Hairfall help!

Asked for Female, 32 Years

I have been facing quite a bit of hairfall in the last 3-4 years. I got my blood tested and my Iron is low, but i am not taking supplements to counter that, I have also started on biotin since last 2-3 weeks. However, I have not seen much change in the hair loss and the density is visibly reduced now. I also have itchy scalp, I use anti-dandruff shampoo but the itch begins 3-4 hours after hair wash. What could be the issue here?

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,,
