Question: what is the normal hair for a man daily. if have over hair fall, why it happen and how avoid it?
Thanks for the query posted.
Normal hair fall is upto 100 hair per day.
If it is excessive it could be due to telogen effluvium or androgenetic alopecia.
Other causes like alopecia areata will need to be ruled out.
Topical use of minoxidil which you would get by prescription.
From your dermatologist. It needs to be applied for many months and you should not stop it.
