Hairfall and white flaky dandruff
I'm 19 years old and my father(55) still has hair on his head. I started losing my hair when I was 17.5 years old. For almost 6-8 months I have this white pigment on my scalp which just won't go. It's mainly near crown and that's where I'm mostly losing my hair from. I've tried oiling and anti-dandruff shampoos but it's still there. It makes my head very itchy and when a hair breaks off, there's this white hard thing at end of it. I consulted a doctor and he thinks it's just dandruff.

Which medicines are you using for your dandruff and for your hair fall. You are suffering from androgenetic alopecia and seb derm. If you want you can send me your pictures for better diagnosis and treatment. Brand names can't be written in open forum.
