Yellow ball at hair tip causing hairloss
Recently I am having hair loss with a yellow ball kind of stuff at the root of the hair. Removing the yellow stuff exposes the white root of hair. Attached the image.touching the hair for combing creates more hair fall. When I checked my blood last month I had 6.4 TSH and 255 cholesterol. Not sure if this was linked but it makes me worried about the hair loss. I am using nioxin shampoo and conditioner thrice a week. Please advice on the remedies. Blood report Ferritin. 69 Total cholesterol 255 Testo 458.7 T3 87 T4 7.6 Tsh 6.41 Vit d 10.35 B12 236 Heamo 14.7

That is just the hair root. You may be 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 refeeding  from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This is usually accompanied by severe dandruff which we call seborrhoea. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised  and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Please call me or  contact me with photos using online consult option for proper examination and treatment. Do not start treatment without consulting. I can give guidance and then you can continue treatment on your own.
