Suggest Treatment For Frontal Hair Loss

Am worried about my hair loss especially around the front and top. Have had very thick hair and from Celtic background went grey early. Am 73 and would like to know why and what treatment . Perhaps cut hair short or ask hairdresser. Maybe the follicles are dying off.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have frontal hair loss. well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like genetic factor , fungal infection and hormonal changes. In your case it seems to me that the the hormonal factor or fungal infection is responsible for hair fall. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult trichologist for proper examination. Doctor may order skin patch test , blood test and physical examination. Doctor may also prescribe supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E . Doctor may also prescribe minoxidil spray or finpecia Doctor may also recommend hair transplant with HUE technique. Take Indian goose berry powder ( half spoon ) with water once a day and use olive for massage . keep your scalp dry.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
