hair loss due to thinning of hair...
sir,
i am a 16 year old boy...
its aabout 6 months that my hairs started thinning and has thinned so much that they started falling from their roots, i m so much worried for this circumstances in such an early age..
i cconsulted doctor he had said me to change the shampoo and also make changes i food habits...but i found no change in hair loss..
what should i do plz help...
I would see a dermatologist to determine exactly what the cause is. If you have a family history of hair loss, especially hair loss at a young age, you probably have androgenetic alopecia and would benefit from finasteride (Propecia), but this needs a doctor's prescription. This medicaion should be started as soon as possible.
