Hairfall and dandruff
I had severe dandruff in childhood. It has reduced now. But, now I have significant hairfall and there is so much empty space on the mid portion. It has drastically reduced in 1 year, despite having no stress, surgery, etc. The surface seems to be very shiny and the pores seem to be closed. I have less vitamin D as per the blood report (around 9).
Please suggest.l, what to do to get new hair or retain the remaining?

Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia):
Overview:
Male pattern baldness is a hereditary condition that affects the hair follicles and is influenced by genetics and hormones, particularly DHT. It follows a specific pattern of hair loss, often beginning with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown.
Symptoms:
1. Receding hairline
2. Thinning at the crown
3. Gradual hair loss, leading to baldness
Causes:
1. Genetic factors
2. Hormonal changes, specifically the influence of DHT
3. Age-related factors
Preventive Measures:
1. Early intervention with medications
2. Regular check-ups with a healthcare professional
Considerations:
Consult with a dermatologist or healthcare professional to determine the most suitable treatment based on individual health and factors contributing to hair loss.
It's important to note that not all individuals experience the same progression of male pattern baldness, and treatment effectiveness can vary. Early intervention often yields better results.
