\r\nWelcome back to icliniq.com.
\r\nPeople who are users of the products describe things differently; while professionals take the things based on clinical and scientific proofs keeping in mind whole the scenario and causes of the disease. Physicians also keep in mind how to cure the underlying cause of the problem that is not only due to a tropical disturbance but also has a disruption at the molecular and cellular level.
\r\nYour hair type does not matter when it comes to the dermatitis scalp problem. For example, a dry hair or a non dry one, both may have dandruff. We have to kill the cause through medicine, not to see the hair type. If we know the cause of the disease, we have to kill the cause and the disease will go away.
\r\nPeople think only dry skin type has dandruff. Dandruff may be due to an underlying scalp disorder irrespective of the skin type. You also used many anti-dandruff shampoos. Anyway, Stieprox (Ciclopirox Olamine) will handle your symptoms of head smells very bad if not washed your hair for 3 to 4 days. This smell is from fungal growth at microscopic levels and causes itch and smell that damages the hair follicles too and hair fall starts with receding hairline or top of the head baldness like you have.
\r\nYou have to shampoo 3 times a week only. Other days of the week, only plain water bath, without shampoo. You also have the problem of androgenic alopecia additionally a cause of hair loss from the top of the head.
\r\nAfter a follow up I will see if you need some medicine to work at hormonal levels too or not. If you were not married, I would have prescribed that right away at first visit. But now we will take the others first, then we will decide how to proceed further.

\nI checked some of the reviews about Stieprox shampoo. Many people reviewed that it is for dry hair. But, as per my knowledge, my hair is wet and thin. Can you please confirm about it? Thank you.
