I am 59 years old, female, and having a problem with the hair on the front of my head, the follicle gets infected and the hair fall out never to grow back. My hairline has already receded 1/2 inch and hair on top of the head is very thin. What can I do?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

You seem to have female pattern baldness.

Kindly consult the dermatologist and have perfect treatment.

I would suggest...

~Minoxidil 5% solution- apply on dry scalp twice a day
~tab biotin - 10 mg once a day
~avoid stress
~take nutritious diet
~go for blood test to rule out thyroid dysfunction, if it is there take treatment
~cleanse the scalp with herbal shampoo alternate days

I hope this would help you.

Thanks.
