My hair started falling out when I was about 17, its a good ten years later Ive tried everything from rogaine to getting my scalp tested, all the doctor said was its infected and gave me anti biotics, Ive taken biotin etc, and still no regrowth, half of my hair is missing Im afraid Im going to lose it all, I was told to take fish oil capsoles... what can I do?                                                                                                                thank you
Hi, Probably you may be having halogen effluvium. It may be due to some cause. Most common cause is psychological upsets like anxiety, worries, tension or depression. Other causes may be thyroid dysfunction, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, anemia, other internal diseases, Chat Doctor. .etc. Remember, normal hair fall in adult may be 100 to 150 per day. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. Blood investigations may be done to find out some other internal cause. I would like to suggest following tips to improve the condition...-take biotin containing tablets for long time-take vitamin E cap-apply mild steroid lotion like beclomethasone lotion on scalp at night. -Mild herbal shampoo may be used-almond oil may be used. -Have patience for the result hope you got my answer. Thanks.
