Hairfall and dandruff
Hello,
I've been having hairfall and dandruff problem since some time. The hairfall is kinda bad. It wasn't this bad earlier. When I was in hostel and used the water there it increased. But now I'm at home and still it's worse than that. I lose more than 200 hairs a day. Also most of the hairs fall with the root. Also there is dandruff problem. It's always itching and the scalp smells bad. I can also see dandruff in eyebrows too.
Could someone please help?
Thankyou

This is Androgenic Alopecia. Permanent hair loss from the scalp, causing baldness. The patterns have a common genetic cause. Dandruff can aggravate this issue and has to be treated.
With male pattern baldness, hair loss typically occurs on the top and front of the head. Medication may prevent further hair loss. In men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair is lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. Over time, the hairline recedes to form a characteristic "M" shape. This appears to be a Genetic condition or external factors like hormonal variations also can contribute. Consult a Dermatologist for the same.
