Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Good Day
My dear, there are many causes for hair loss. It can be fungal infection, severe dandruff and also hormonal disturbances. For hormonal disturbance like Androgenic alopecia which runs in the family, a solution called Minoxidil 2% has shown some promise in causing thick hair growth. You need to stop worrying, do deep breathing exercises, Pranayam, Yoga, eat fresh fruits and vegetables which are a rich source of antioxidants. Drink 1-2 litres of water a day. Exercise for 40 minutes atleast everyday by brisk walking. You need to show to the Dermatologist who will decide which drug to use in your case according to the cause. GOOD LUCK !!!!
