Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of oily scalp and hair loss which could be due to many reasons like nutritional deficiencies, fungal infection, improper hygiene, genetic factor, and hormonal changes. Need not to worry. You should take supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test, skin patch test and can do physical examination . Doctor may prescribe you drug like finpecia at least for 2-3 months or antifungal treatment along with minoxidil spray. You should wash hairs after proper massage with olive oil. You should maintain complete hygiene. You should use Finasteride preparations.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
