Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am having a hair fall problem. What is the reason for my hair fall problem? If my hair fall is because of DHT, what is the reason for that, and how can I unclog hair follicles blocked by DHT? Please suggest a way to unclog DHT naturally and not artificially. I do not mind how long it will take. But it would be better if there is a natural solution.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. The following are the causes of hair fall. The causes are androgenetic alopecia, autoimmune disorders, medications such as cancer drugs, severe infection, high fever, or surgery. 50 to 100 strands of hair fall daily is normal, and new hair growth replaces these hairs. Treatment options include Minoxidil lotion (Propylene glycol and Ethanol), oral medications such as Finasteride and vitamins, hair transplant, laser light treatment, and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy. There is no natural solution to it. A hair transplant is a permanent solution.

Preventive measures

Do not rub or comb hair when they are wet. Do not use too many hair products. Take a high protein natural diet. Regular eight-hour continuous sleep and avoid stress. Protect hair from extreme temperature, cold, and dust. Avoid hair dryers.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
