Suggest Treatment For Hair Fall

default
Posted on Sat, 20 Sep 2014
Question: Hi Doctors,
i am a 23 year old guy having hairfall problems. Hairs from my fore head is started thinning from last year and a half. My parents aren't bald so i guess its not hereditary. I too don't have any kind of illness not even a common cold. Hell, i haven't even to a hospital for the last decade.

I have started taking Trichoton Forte from last week.

Also i need another clarification, and i think a lot of guys are looking for a truthful and honest answer for this; does masturbation has any effect on hair fall?

Also i need some suggestion on what and what not to eat. Please advice me for this.
Your help will be appreciated.

Thank You
doctor

Brief Answer:
Minoxidil

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

If the hair fall as you say is not genetic then it could be nutritional. You may have to improve your nutrition by consuming foods rich in keratin. This includes all fruits and protein supplements like ENSURE.

Apply Minoxidil 5% solution to the scalp and take Tab Finax 1mg one tab in the morning every day for three months. These two treatments would surely reduce the hair fall and stimulate regrowth.

No, masturbation does not affect the nutrition to the hair or lead to their fall.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
