Severe Dandruff, Itching, Thinning Hair. Suggest Treatment?
Hi, I am 21 years of age but at the age of 17, i had severe dandruff problem which resulted in the itching of my temples at the sides of my head. As a result of this, i realized that my hair was thinning at the sides and to date it has not regrown. Frustrated as i have very thin hair at the sides. Please provide me with some sort of advice or treatment that will help to restore my hair. Thank You

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to dandruff and I think still dandruff infection is there causing this problem.
Go for hemoglobin check up to rule out anemia which is also gives rise to fall and thinning of hair.
Rule out hypothyroid as well.
After all report consult your doctor and go for treatment accordingly.
Ok and take care.
