Hi greetings. That's because you may be having an inherent nature of increased oil secretion. If this is really trouble some and associated with dandruff, a short course of oral antifungals or even low dust oral retinoids may help. See a dermatologist near you. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal, excel care hospital, Bangalore.
