Hair loss and hair thinning
Hair thinning and loss of hair density from my posterior scalp. I noticed this in February and decided to shave my hair in June as i had long hair to better be able to see the situation. I also feel heave especially in that region of my head where i am losing my hair.
I am correcting my vitamin d deficiency by taking injections. My dad started losing hair in his 40s. My reports suggest no other deficiency although i also have high bilirubin levels since the last 4 years. Please help.
