Suggest Remedy For Hair Loss

I am concerned I am losing my hair or having it thin. I'm a 21 yr old guy. It falls out everytime I run my fingers through it and slightly pull. I am a college athlete who gets plent of exercise. I tak vitamins and eat healthily as well. How can I be sure I am losing it? I am really concerned and worried here. Thanks

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have hair loss which is known as alopecia problem which could be due to genetic factor, fungal infection, covering head with cap and hormonal changes. Stress is a contributing factor for your condition.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist once for proper examination. Doctor may order skin patch test, blood test and may prescribe you drug like finpecia at least for 3-4 months. Take diet rich in supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E. Take Indian gooseberry powder ( half spoon ) with water once a day and use almond oil for massage.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
