Hi...Can understand your concern...As er your query about severe hair loss at age of 23 can be due to many reasons like most common cause can be dandruff of which you may not be aware and you should get it checked..(some times its not clearly visible) Other reasons can be genetic ,nutritional deficiency,frequent exposure to pollution,stress etc...I suggest you to use a mild shampoo like jhonson baby shampoo with least chemicals and if dandruff present use a medicated anti dandruff shampoo like selsun and wash properly....Take iron and folic acid supplements daily ank your diet should contain more of fruits and green leafy vegetables..Avoid exposure to pollution by using a cap..Minoxidil solution is proven medicine for controlling hair fall but you should use it after consulting your dermatologist and your scalp examination...If the above doesn'tworks and there is major hair loss you can go for mesotherapy by consulting the dermatologist...I hope the information helps you.Take care.
