How Can Heavy Hair Loss With Itching And Greying Be Treated?
I have heavy hair loss problem since last 3-4 years. I had dense curly hairs, which turned to thin and weak hair roots now-a-days. I tried mudra, ayuvedic, yoga but all in vain. Recently, i have been using ayuvedic oils before bed and also taking daily shower with herbal shampoo. Nothing stopped my hair fall, its itching and hair fall became endless. I am 25 years old male, nearing male pattern of baldness (center part of head and forehead) very quickly with the high rate of hair fall i have. My job is not hectic (so, stress problem cannot be the rootcause), hardly have greens and seafoods since i moved from my native place before 4 years. My father started having baldness after the age of 40 or 45. I do have incresing premature hair-greying. I am also consuming becousles (B complex) tablets for the last 15 days to compensate any deficiency on vitamins. Please suggest some remedy to stop this hair fall and premature hair greying. Is there any possiblity to recover the lost hairs? Please help.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You might be having Seborrheic dermatitis with Androgenetic alopecia.
For seborrheic dermatitis, apply Ketoconazole shampoo weekly thrice.
For Androgenetic alopecia, you can initially start with Minoxidil solution. But you have to be patient for a minimum of 6 months to get a response.
You can take Biotin supplements for Premature graying.
In case of any major problems, do not hesitate to consult your Family Physician/Dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
