Reducing hair density
Around March I started to notice that my hair density has reduced significantly so I went to see Doctor. He said its quite normal and not genetic with nobody in my family ever had it & gave me a hair serum called Anaboom to apply daily at night and vitamin capsule Tricogro. I used it for 4-5 months regular. Initially the hairfall was pretty much the same but in some time it reduced to some extent and stayed constant. Though by now my whenever my hair used to be wet scalp used to be visible with quite low hair density overall. So again I saw the doctor and rhi time he changed the serum for hair growth to" Hair for you" to be applied in morning and "Kera XL" for night and my capsule was changed to "Follihair". I have been using it for 2 months now still it's exactly the same.Hair density is still the same with scalp being visible though there are no bald patches anywhere just less density through out the head. What shall I do to improve my hair density if not alot but to some extent.

You are 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 receeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. It is usually accompanied by severe dandruff which we call seborrhoea. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is the best. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects of DHT on the hair roots.
