I Have Severe Hair Loss. I Cant Apply Oil Because Of Itching
Good morning doctor. I am a 39 year old female. I have severe hair loss . My hair is slowly thinning. I can even see the scalp where I part my hair in the front. I have dandruff problem too. If I wash my hair daily with the shampoo , the problem seems to reduce, but once I apply oil, my head starts itching. I apply oil at night and take bath in the morning. Can you please suggest any oil or cream that could control my dandruff and stop hair thinning. Thank you

Stress, anemia, hypothyroidism , dandruff , hormonal imbalance cause hair fall.
Check your CBC and TSH to rule out anemia and hypothyroidism.
Use Nizoral shampoo for dandruff.
Apply Shesi hair oil 1-2 hours before bath.
