Hi,

As per your query you have symptoms of bald patches which is due to the sensitivity of hair follicles to androgenic hormones leading to the destruction of hair follicles. It could be due to genetic factors and poor nutritional hygiene as well.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you do an application of Mintop lotion and massage it in a proper way. I would suggest you consult a Trichologist and get a complete examination done and start treatment after proper examination. You should take Biotin and Multivitamin supplements and take Finasteride orally. Massage your scalp with warm coconut oil. Maintain proper hygiene.

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

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
