hair loss
I am 23 and have been shedding hair for about 1 year.It is of diffuse type and is worse when i shampoo my hair.I've got an itchy scalp and have been using salicylate based shampoo which relieves the itching only mildly.I am also anemic.Does anemia has a major role in hair loss?How much is the normal shedding rate per day?is revivogan available in Mauritius?
You may shed between 100-150 hairs daily. If you have anemia, you need to address that first since anemia is one of the most common causes of hair loss. Also the the scalp irritation (seborrhiec dermatitis) may cause the hair loss that you are experiencing. You need to see a dermatologist whom specializes in hair loss to diagnose your condition before you initiate any treatment.
