Question : I am having hair fall problem atleast 4 to 5 hairs while i combing my hair fall down.
Hi dear XXXXXXX
Our hair go through 3 different stages anagen ,catagen ,telogen corresponding to growing phase/ cessation phase/rest phase.
Normally 80% of hair are in anagen or growing phase .
Daily about 100 hairs are lost as a natural process.
Out of which 50 can be seen normally by our eyes.
If you are seeing fall of 4-5 hairs while combing it is absolutely normal.
If you are having more hairfall than 50 per day then it is to be considered for treatment.
You can take a good multivitamin supplement to support hair growth.
Tablet Bi toZ is one such combination.
Also take anti oxidants and vitamin C in good amounts as they help in collagen building.
In general measures to avoid hair fall you should
- avoid stress, maintain good diet ,adequate sleep,regular exercise.Keeping good general health will add to treatment.
-Take one fruit every day.Take lemon juice and other citrous foods as they are XXXXXXX in vitamin C and anti oxidants.
-Do not comb when hairs are wet.
-Use widely spaced comb with rounded teeth(not sharp ends).
-Avoid hot water for bathing(use lukewarm water)
-Avoid hardening gels/ harsh colors/chemicals on scalp.
-Avoid direct sunexposure/heat/wind exposure to your hair.
-You can use nizoral shampoo for hair wash.
Hope this helps.
I will be available for follow up if any.
Regards
