Brief Answer:
Stress and nutrition are the first two things

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX. Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic. Hair loss and hair thinning in your age group are normally due to 2 things

1) Poor nutrition / Vitamin deficiencies
2) Stress.. mental and physical

You need to look into these two issues to see what is going on. We have good nutritionists here that can help you with a diet plan.

If the stress is the problem. We need to look into meditation and yoga they help the most in younger patients.

Now, from a more medical perspective, if you hair is falling out in patches or your scalp is very itchy.. then you might have an infection or other skin issue causing the hairfall..

Let me know what is going on. I hope this helps

Hello ,

Thank you XXXXXXX

My hair is not falling out in patches nor my scalp is itchy. I have recently joined Zumba classes so that I can de-stress.

I had taken a diet regime from Healthcare magic but im unable to follow due to hectic work.

Do you suggest that i should taken vitamin supplements/ can you suggest some food supplements that help de-stress and also prevent hairfall.

Thanks

Brief Answer:
A multivitamin may be of benefit.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I would strongly suggest you try and stick to your diet. It would be the best. If you would like to try a course of multivitamins, the by all means do so. It would do no harm. The thing you have to remember is that if you need to take the multivitamin on a daily business for at least 3 months before you will see any change
