Severe Hair Loss

by Ravi1111, Apr 10, 2008 11:57PM
Dear Sir, I have been suffering from hair loss for last 3 years. Everyday I get hair fall whenever I comb on my hair. I have consulted a doctor, he is a Trichologist. He said that you have a disease of Alopecia and male pattern Baldness, which is in the second stage now. After sometime you will be completely bald on the frontside. He suggest me that You should get treatment without any late. So my hair strings become too thinny now, Sometime ago my hair was very strong and healthy and there was no hairloss. So please suggest me what to do, Is there any chance to stop the hair fall ? Suggest me some herbal medication for my hair. I am using Garnier Shampoo two times in a week. Also using coconut oil two times in a week before sleep in the night. Except these I don't use any other type of creams, gel, etc......Please help me, I am very worried about my hair.


Kind Regards
Ravi

Hi,

How old are you?

Do you have a family history of earlyhair loss?

Have you had any disease or prolonged treatment in the past?

Do you have dandruff or any other hair condition?

First of all please make sure that you go to a dermatologist, a certified doctor. Secondly, answer some of the questions here. And finally, if you are a male understand that male pattern baldness cannot be reversed, only controlled and there are many options available for that. However, you may have to go to a doctor to understand this.

Please read about male pattern alopecia from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Male_pattern_baldness

"Androgenic alopecia (also known as androgenetic alopecia or alopecia androgenetica) is a common form of hair loss in both men and women. In men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair is lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. Over time, the hairline recedes to form a characteristic "M" shape. Hair also thins at the crown of the head, often progressing to partial or complete baldness."

Best regards
