Severe Hairfall
Earlier I used to have dense, black and shiny hairs. But from last 5 years or so, I'm loosing hairs from all of my body, but from my head, it's 70-100 hairs whenever I take a head wash. I'm getting bald near the area behind ears and on it.

Hi. Greetings, losing hair from entire body and from behind ears may not be the routine common hereditary baldness. You probably have alopecia areata of diffuse type. This is an autoimmune type of hair loss.You shall need to see a dermatologist at the earliest for confirmation of diagnosis and adequate treatment. Don't ignore or delay. Or you could send pics on follow up chat . hope this helps. Warm regards. Dr Govind S Mittal.
