Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of hair loss which seems to be due to compromised immunity of body, stress, systemic conditions, improper hygiene, fungal infection and hormonal changes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to
- Avoid covering your hairs with cap/hat or longer duration.
- Take diet rich in supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E.
- You should avoid using shampoos that contain excessive chemicals.
- Take protein rich diet and healthy food intake on daily basis.
- Do massage of hair scalp on daily basis.
If symptoms keeps on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment with antifungal medication and shampoo. Go for blood tests to check any underlying systemic pathology.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
