Hello,
When you suddenly start experiencing severe hair fall and dandruff, it can be overwhelming, especially if the usual remedies don't seem to help. I see a lot of patients facing similar issues, and there are several possible reasons why this could be happening. It may be linked to stress, seasonal changes, diet, or even hormonal shifts. Sometimes, even if you've been using a reliable shampoo or haven't undergone any chemical treatments, your scalp and hair health can still fluctuate.
A common shampoo alone may not be enough to address these issues, as dandruff and hair fall often need a more targeted approach. Dandruff, for example, is often due to a scalp yeast imbalance or sensitivity, and a medical-grade anti-dandruff shampoo with active ingredients like ketoconazole, zinc pyrithione, or selenium sulfide can help. If regular shampoos arenât effective, consider using one of these options, as they can control dandruff from the root cause.
For hair fall, several factors could be at play. Nutritional deficiencies, especially in iron,
vitamin D, and certain B vitamins, are often involved. I always recommend a blood test to check for these deficiencies. Once you know the root cause, you can start supplements that directly address the problem. You might also consider scalp treatments, such as PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy, which I often suggest to clients for stimulating hair follicles and improving scalp health.
If this hair fall and dandruff have only been a problem for the past two to three months, there could be a specific trigger. Try to reflect on any recent lifestyle changes, stress, or even a new product that may have contributed.
