What Causes Partial Hair Loss From Center Of Head?
Question: sir, partial hair lose has started on center portion of the head.can help me in this regard
Brief Answer:
Probably androgenetic alopecia
Detailed Answer:
Hi ,Welcome.
Thanks for being at HealthCareMagic .
You must be having androgenetic alopecia which has genetic basis and occurs in predisposed individuals.
It is characterised by recession of the frontal hair line along with loss of hair from the central portion.
I would recommend you to upload a picture of your head so that the diagnosis can be confirmed.
In such cases I recommend my patients to start with MINOXIDIL 5 percent solution 1ml twice daily on the affected areas of the scalp along with tablet finasteride 1 mg daily.
This needs to be continued for 4-5 months to see any significant improvement and for atleast 1 year to see maximum response.
I hope to have answered your query and would have happy to clarify any further doubts.

Dr Asmeet
