Severe Dandruff, Flaking, Hair Loss, Taking Homeopathy Medicine, No Relief. Any Solution ?

Hi, I have severe dandruff and flaking for the last 9 minds. I have losing hair also since then.
There is no history of MPB in my family.
It was stated when I relocated to a new city.
My hair have become very oily as well. I have been taking homeopathy medicine for the last 9 months, but there has been no significant improvement.

Hello,

Thanks for writing here.

Dandruff is age related problem.As age advances there is increase in hormones leading to oiliness.This causes dandruff,hair loss and acne.

You need a good antifungal shampoo like ketoconazole.It is available on counter.Use it twice weekly.Continue with it even if you are free from dandruff.

Hope this will solve your problem.Take care.
