Hair thinning and hair fall
My hairline is reducing. And hair is thinning day by day. Please suggest what should I do about this? The forehead sides are a little empty. And so many hair strands are coming out after comb. I am drinking 4 ltr water and taking proper diet. I am doing the oiling thrice a week but the problem still exists. Suggest some tips to stop it.

This is a very common problem and the treatment is not satisfactory. It is more common now than the earlier time.

Since treatment is usually unsatisfactory it is better to get treatment under a Dermatologist.

Don't bind the hairs tightly..if hairfall is too much then apply minoxidil solution after consulting me privately as it has some contraindications...and for thinning of hair you need amino acids supplementations
