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 c,read 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 loss from the hairline or crown can occur due to many reasons, more commonly due to-
- hormonal effect
- nutrition
- lifestyle imbalance

- Medical conditions, fever
The exact reason can be found out by taking detailed history and hair analysis .
Accordingly, anti hairloss medicines, hair specific multivitamins, lotions and gels are prescribed.
Many non surgical external treatments are available that show good results and can prevent hair transplant.
These are :

It can be androgenetic alopecia or telogen effluvium. Treatment varies accordingly. Telogen effluvium is short term and respond well to medicines. But for AGA, treatment is long-term as its progressive and hereditary. In future you can consider hair transplant as well.
