i have suffered from Typhoid fever nearly 15 years ago, after the typhoid i gradually suffered hair loss, and now my forehead widened about 1.5", I want to know the precautions and remedies to have my hair back?? is there any solution of my problem???
Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic, Receding forehead hair line and the duration of hair fall in your case is very much likely to be male pattern baldness ( Androgenetic alopecia). There are US FDA approved treatments for it like topical minoxidil 5 % solution and Finasteride tablets. You need to take these for a long time as we cannot cure the genetic problem but can halt the process. Kindly consult a dermatologist for initiating the treatment. I recommend you to avoid smoking if you do, treat dandruff if you have it and eat a balanced diet with fresh fruits and vegetables and nuts. Excessive sunlight and pollution can be damaging. Relaxation exercises like yoga helps. Hope this helped, Take care.
