Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You could be suffering from Androgenetic alopecia. I would suggest you to apply Minoxidil solution. Along with that take Biotin supplements. If you have dandruff, use Ketoconazole shampoo.
Continue this treatment for at least 6 months and be patient. Minoxidil exerts its initial effect only after 6 months.
In case of worsening of symptoms, do consult your Dermatologist immediately.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Siva Subramanian.
