hello sir....
i am 22 years old female and facing hair loss from 19years of age.
i started my treatment under the dermatologist around 1 year back.
I got my Hb,thyroid and urine checked,everything comes out to be normal.everybody in my family have good hair except me,my father at my age used to have normal hair,now at 45 he is loosing hair.
I am having biotin,calcium pentothenate,vit E and multivitamins daily,i am washing my head with ketokonazole shampoo twice a week
I neither have acne over my face nor facial hair,i just have milia,my menstrual cycle is also regular.
i am using minoxidil from the past 6 months and it has caused considerable improvement.
before using minoxidil my hair were very thin and gap in middle parting was somewhat larger than the normal and a small patch was present in the front part in head,but now it is not there.
i just want to know,is it telogen effluvium or androgenetic alopecia?how can i differentiate genetic hair loss from normal one?
