Hair Loss. Arnica Fortis Ineffective, Hair Budding Fiber Used. Advise?

Hello my name is Subham Garai, I am 16 years old and in this little age i am facing a grave problem with my hair loss. Firstly I have consulted a doctor in my own tow, Barddhaman. He advised me to apply Arnica Fortis, but it was then very late since I applied it, no results. Then I went for a TV add, & I applied the oil named Hair Building Fiber, it was working well at its level, I used it only one bottle & stopped. Again after one month my hair fall continued & it is effecting my studies, friends are sometimes kid me up. The main problem arises here, after applying The Hair Building Fiber new hair roots developed & were growing healthy, as soon as I stopped applying it all the results undo their actions..... Now the gaps on my scalp are clearly visible. Please help in need....Thanking you.

Hello Subham,

First of all do not get influenced by the products shown in the TV advertisements.

Causes of hair loss are many, such as:
1. Environmental factors
2. Stress
3. Deficiency of certain minerals, vitamins & amino acids in diet. e.g. Iron, zinc, Vit B complex, lysine.
4. Hormonal factors. e.g. Thyroxine
5. Any incidence of surgery, shock, etc.

Management includes:
1. Treating the underlying cause
2. Avoidance of stress
3. Dietary modifications
4. Minoxidil solution to be applied locally to stimulate the hair follicles
5. Multivitamin & multi mineral supplementation

But these medications have to be used regularly under the guidance of a Dermatologist, as hair loss tends to return on stoppage of these medications.

So, instead of going in for the products shown in TV advertisements, it will be better to consult a Dermatologist to find out the underlying cause & start treatment accordingly.

There is no need to worry.
Your hairs will grow back again.

Wishing you a Good Health.
Thanks & take care.
