Major Hairfall
I had curly dense hair. Its been two years since my hair started falling owing to different water and climate in Mumbai I guess. It was slightly controlled by natural remedies and different oils now and then. But recently I am facing major hairfall. It falls when I wash, comb, put oil and even when I brush my fingers inside my hair. My scalp is easily visible now. I am tensed, since the number of falling hair has increased suddenly and to a huge count. Will I be able to get my dense hair back. Please suggest.

Hairfall is not due to one single cause. There are many conditions which can cause extreme hair loss and thinning of hair on the scalp. So first and foremost we have to find the cause of hair fall with the help of detailed history and examination. Some of the common causes maybe nutritional deficiency, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia also called pattern baldness, hypothyroidism, telogeun effluvium etc. Unless we find and c,read the cause there is no point in giving non specific treatment. Also one should refrain from home remedies as it does not give any relief from hairfall. Oil and shampoos do not have any effect on hair growth as they are not absorbed in the skin.Please contact me using online consultation for proper examination diagnosis and treatment
