Hairfall is not due to one single cause. There are many conditions which can cause extreme hair loss and thinning of hair on the scalp. So first and foremost we have to find the cause of hair fall with the help of detailed history and examination. Some of the common causes maybe nutritional deficiency, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia also called pattern baldness, hypothyroidism, telogeun effluvium etc. Unless we find and treat the cause there is no point in giving non specific treatment. Also one should refrain from home remedies as it does not give any relief from hairfall. Oil and shampoos do not have any effect on hair growth as they are not absorbed in the skin. Please contact me using online consultation for proper examination diagnosis and treatment

Hair treatment comes under regular management treatment as hairs are very much dependant in the slightest changes. In females I have seen hair loss depends on hormonal, nutritional and psychological aspects. Medicines and treatment procedures are very much dependant on excess reason so detailed case analysis is required. Can start doing Scalp hygiene, hair specified diet like green tea, flax seed, almonds, soya bean.Along with these Consult with a qualified hair specialist at the earliest.
