Hi there.
I read your detailed description of hair loss & empathise with your anxiety.
I am Bangalore based & if you should drop into Bangalore, you are most welcome for a free consult at Vikram Hospital, Bangalore.
I note all your test results are normal.
The dandruff may be aggravated with stress & this needs to be addressed.
Off the cuff, would recommend you try Sebamed's Anti-dandruff shampoo & leave it on wet scalp for 10-15 mts twice a week & see how this goes for you.
Only after assessing you can I recommend a procedure called PRP (platelet derived growth factor injections) followed by hair transplantation which I find to be successful in my patients. This of course will set you back a touch in Delhi & dare say it will be cheaper in Bangalore. Having said that, the technical team needs to be good & I do have an excellent team at my disposal.
Chill & relax..stress aggravates it. You did say you were a 'Delhi girl'. If that means you live outside Delhi & anywhere close to Bangalore, most welcome for a free assessment & chat & will take it from there.
Good Luck & wish you a good head of hair soon :)
