Dermatologist Dr. Bharat Chawda's  Response
Hi!,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum,
I read you have mentioned patches of hair loss,is it coin shaped patches or you are having a diffuse hair loss.If it is coin shaped patches then what you have is called alopecia areata.Kindly confirm.Alopecia areata is a medical problem and responds good to proper treatment.Minoxidil does work good,but there are other good medicines too in allopathy.Kindly let me know your age and sex so that i can guide you further.. Improve your diet with green leafy veg, fresh fruits, plenty of water, sprouts ,pulses, high protein diet, avoid items with high sugar content like sweets & chocolates, less of Chinese foods, less of pizza & burgers ,more of milk & ghee, dry fruits . Good sleep also has a important role to play . We also do hair transplantation for those needed.
Take care,
Dr.Chawda

Homeopath Dr. KOMAL vig's  Response
hello,

welcome to "Healthcare Magic Forum", minoxidil will surely give you results ,
applying any external applications will help you untill you stop applying it ,
but this wont cure your hairloss .will suggest you to start with homoeopathic
medications as it will cure the cause of hairloss giving you healthy hair,as well
homoeopathy is very safe ,effective and natural, which will stop the hairloss and you
may find regrowth as well without any external application .but it depends on the grading of your hairloss . consult a Homoeopath or for more info u can write down at (drvigclinic@gmail.com).
but as you said you have patches in your scalp so a proper diagnosis is required to define wether its alopecia areata or androgenetic alopecia. in both the conditions Homoeoapthic medicnes gives wonderful results.

wish you good health always
