Hair loss due to Seb derm or DHT
I started taking treatment for hair loss 2yrs back and got good results and this year have been facing huge hair loss. Last year I came to know that I had seb derm and used isotretinion along with clobetasol lotion which gave good recovery in flaking. I'm curious to know what causing my hair loss now is that due to DHT or seb derm as I see flakes or white substance when I scratch my scalp. Does sweat worse seb derm? As I do workouts daily and sweat a lot but showers twice or trice in a weak.

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
