Hi,
As per your query you have symptoms of alopecia which can occur due to many reasons such as compromised immunity of the body, stress, genetic factor, improper hygiene, fungal infection and hormonal changes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to
- Take a diet rich in supplements like Vitamin A, Omega-3 and Vitamin E.
- Take a protein-rich diet and healthy food intake on a daily basis.
- Avoid using shampoos that contain excessive chemicals.
- Do massage of hair scalp on a daily basis.
If symptoms keep on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment with antifungal medication and shampoo.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
