How Can Hair Thinning And Falling Be Treated?
HI, I am Salman, 22 years old male. I am noticing that the density of my hair on top is decreasing. I am a little worried about this early age hair loss problem. I used to have a lots of dandruff in my hair, about 4-5 years ago. So i have been using Selsun blue shampoo which significantly removed my dandruff but now my hair are starting to thin and fall. Please help.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You seem to have androgenetic alopecia. I suggest you to apply a topical minoxidil 5 %solution, 1ml, twice daily. In addition I suggest you to take an oral finasteride 1mg tab once a day for long. Both of these are approved remedies for androgenetic alopecia in males.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
