Suggest Ways To Get Thicker Hair
Question: Hi Doctor,
My name is XXXX, 23 years old software developer from XXXXXXX MH, XXXXXXX I experienced major hairfall in last 5-6 months. May be it was because of bad water from bore-well or may be I was not getting enough vitamins in my body. The hairfall is almost zero now (can see 3-4 hairs falling a day which I believe is a normal thing).
As the hairfall was heavy in last few months the density is not as good as it was before. It is not very thin but thin compared to previous density.. Is there any medicine, pills or hair oil that I can apply to increase density and thickness of hairs?
I don't have white hairs yet and I am health loving person who work out every day... Please suggest me a good way to get the density back. I don't think we have anyone with baldness in our family from father's end.. My grandfather (Mother's side) had baldness but no one else..
Help me :-)

Brief Answer:
Quick Hair gain needs very good nutrition .
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
This form of hair loss in your case is a normal physiological form of hair loss what everybody will experience at your age-This is known as telogen effluvium.
Most of the men recover from this spontaneously with time.
Daily loss of 10-100 hair follicles is within the normal range.
Change of environment in your case has most likely prompted hair loss in your case.
To have a good dense hair,i advise you the following.
1.Take tab biotin 10 mg twice a day for 90 days.
2.Apply almond hair oil for 8 hrs overnight every 3rd day.Wash the next day.
3.Take tab soy isoflavone 100 mg twice a week.

Thank you so much Dr. XXXXXXX for a quick answer. However, I have some more questions -
1. Does the given prescription has any side-effects?
2. Will my scalp be able to reproduce hair as previous? I no very very less hairfall now (no hairfall since 1 month) but the density is still less compared to previous years.

Brief Answer:
These drugs are relatively free of side effects.
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
These drugs are relatively very free of side effects.
All these drugs help to increase the density of hair by increasing the pro keratin production in the hair shafts.
You can take these drugs after after having discussion with your doctor.
Drugs like omega 3 fatty acids and soy isoflavones act like natural DHT inhibitors in the body which help to prevent the hair fall to a very large extent.
These drugs have their clinical effect prominent when used for 2 months.
You can definitely regain all your lost hair density without fail.
The trick lies in preventing the hair fall mainly.
Thank you.
