hi, I m from 19 yrs old, female. I ve been suffering from heavy hairloss for the past 4 yrs. My family members do have good hair. 2-3 yrs before i did have dandruff too but now its very mild. I tried many oils but it did no give expected results and i do notice some small acne like bumps which are painful when i scratch.can you give me some advice?

Dermatologist 's  Response
hi, welcome to HCM,
heavy loss since 4 years is due to patterned hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
minoxidil 2% is US FDA approved for this. apply 1 ml twice daily.
take tab Biotin+PABA once daily.
wash your hair with volumizing shampoo.
keep patience, continue treatment for at least six month.
this will definately not only stop your hair fall but new hair will also come.
thanks
