Thinning Of Hair. Advised With Laser Treatment. Any Other Treatment Not For Getting Worse?
Hello, For the last 3 or 4 years I ve been dealing with hair thinning and my scalp can be seen. I don t suffer from hair fall but my hair is a lot thinner than it was before and it s almost impossible for me to wear my hair in a tail because I look like I only have a few hair on my head. I ve been to a lot of doctors and they have advised me laser treatment telling me that it would only prevent it from getting worse but not get it back to normal. Could you please help me?

hello
welcome to healthcaremagic forum
all medication which are available manily work to prevent further hair loss
minoxidil may induce some new hair ,it is us fda approved for hair thinning and loss
biotin tab with other multivitamin has good effect on thin hair
laser is not a time tested for thin hair
better to understand process of hair thinning and loss
you should do some blood test like cbc ,thyroid to rule out cause for that .
so minoxidil and biotin base medicine for minimum 7 month to have good result is best for you
i hope i answered your question
