Hair Loss Problem
I am 26 years old and recently I notices that I am loosing my hairs too fast. I tried searching online for the reason but got no answer. It is very rare that I feel so can not be the reason. Please advice if I should visit some trichologist.
Thank you

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is minoxidil lotion and finesteride tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. Please consult me with photos for proper examination and treatment.
