Itchy scalp could Indicate that u could b having a condition called Seborrhoeic Dermatitis. It can also lead to aggravation of the hair loss. Hair line receding is a indicator for the onset of balding which is characterized by the hair thinning out initially then proceeding to hair loss. It's hormonal associated in most of the cases but it could also be genetic or diet associated. There could be multiple reasons for the same. Preferably consult a Dermatologist so ur scalp can be examined and also the hair quality and tone.
Health Tips
improve ur diet to a high protein diet, avoid oiling ur hair and scalp. stop OTC products.
