Hi,

It may be androgenetic alopecia. The condition is genetically inherited. Consult the dermatologist for confirmation of the diagnosis.

I would suggest..
- minoxidil 5% solution to apply on the scalp
- tab finasteride
- tab biotin
- shampoo with a ketoconazole-containing shampoo
- avoid stress and worries.

Get treatment from the dermatologist continuously for few years or till good result.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel,
