HI DOCTOR, AS PER YOUR CONCERNS I AM NOT SUFFERING ANY KIND OF DISORDER RIGHT NOW AND I HAVE NOT TAKEN VITAMIN A IN ANY FORM EARLIER. MY MENSTRUAL CYCLE IS ALSO NORMAL AND NOT HAVING THYROID DISORDER AS WELL. RECENTLY I HAVE GONE THROUGH WITH MY COMPLETE BLOOD CHECK UP, EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. MY HAIRS GENERALLY GET COMES OUT FROM ROOTS AND HAVE SPLIT ENDS ALSO. AS I AM A WORKING WOMEN SO I NEED TO SHAMPOO THEM TWICE OR THRICE A WEEK. PLS SUGGEST ME ANY MEDICINE OR MEDICATED SHAMPOO OR OIL TO CURE THEM.
Dear XXXXXXX
1. As split ends (Trichoptlosis) is the major concern in your case, is it possible that you do too much with your hair like: irregular trimming,excess shampooing, weaving, coloring,too much dry heat (blow dryers), manual stress (physical trauma)?
2. Type of hair style you usually prefer: do you have long or short hairs AND whether hair are dry or brittle?
3. Please revert back with above concerns for treatment aspect, in the meantime preventive aspect is given below
i. Avoid too much exposure to sun.
ii. As you are from Delhi, thus summer season is one of the culprit for split ends, make sure you take adequate protection for the same.
iii. Avoid high extremes of temperature such as used in hair straightening devices.
iv. After bath make sure you avoid vigorous toweling of hair, let them dry naturally.
v. Make less choice for synthetic hair oils, hair coloring,bleaching,styling and use of dry blowers.
vi. Avoid excessive exposure to sun, heat, wind, dust,anger, stress, anxiety,
vii. avoid oily, fried, spicy, hot, fermented and stale food.
viii. .Proteins are essential for antibodies production so milk,egg (white), beans, yogurt, soyamilk, pumpkin, squash,watermelon,peanuts,almonds, if non-vegetarian (meat) are choices
ix. mango, carrots, cantaloupe,egg yolk,apricots,pumpkin,papaya, are ideal
x. Vitamin C: is needed for proper functioning of immune system: amla is good option.
