Messive Hair fall
I am suffering from extreme hair fall, it has reduced to 1/3 from my actual dense hair growth. The hair fall is in bunches from root. In other words my hairs are falling or getting detached from roots whenever I comb them in the same condition direction. Please suggest probable reasons as I never had this problem in my maiden family and myself in past. This has recently started from last one and half month as spend more than 15 days in
hospital due to father's illness.

There are many reasons for hair fall. So first and foremost we have to find the cause with the help of detailed history and examination. Some of the common causes are nutritional deficiency, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia or patterned baldness, hypothyroidism, telogen effluvium etc. Unless we find and treat the cause there is no point in giving non specific treatment. Oils or shampoos do not have any effect on hair growth as they are not absorbed in the skin. Please call me or send photographs using online consult option for proper diagnosis and detailed prescription,, please don't use anything without proper consultantion.
