dandruff

Avatar m tn Hello, I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be due to contact dermatitis or allergic reaction to the shampoo. Other causes are stress, fungal infections, alopecia aereata, hormonal imbalance(overproduction of dihydrotestosterone and thyroid hormones irregularities),malnutrition, telogen effluvium and sebum plugs on skin. My sincere advice is to consult a trichologist and get these possibilities ruled out.
1142540 tn?1261368153 My scalp has also been very dry and itchy with dandruff. I never had any of these problems before Doryx and so of course I stopped about a week ago. My hair is at least half of what it was last year. Please help someone if you know anything? How devastating as a woman to have to go through this. If losing hair was listed as a side effect (like it should be), I would not have taken this. Clearly it's no coincidence.

Avatar m tn Hello, Causes of hair fall could be like nutrients and proteins deficiency in the hair cells, emotional or physical stress, hormonal imbalances, dandruff, and serious illness like a tumors, infectious disease and Alopecia areata. All these causes need to be ruled out. Mirena is less likely to cause hair fall. Your hair needs vitamins and minerals to grow that it can only get from the bloodstream.
Avatar f tn I now have very severe dandruff, with scabs on my scalp, and my hair has begun to thin--my eyebrows are nearly as bad as my lashes. I don't know if any of this is related, but it has made me very self-conscious about it and everything I do does not help.
Avatar f tn Hello, Seborrehic dermatitis or adult cradle cap can present like dandruff but other causes like dandruff, folliculitis of the scalp, fungal infections, alopecia aereata, hormonal imbalance (overproduction of dihydrotestosterone and thyroid hormones irregularities),malnutrition, telogen effluvium and sebum plugs on skin also need to be ruled out one by one.
Avatar n tn One has to rule out alopecia areata, hair loss due to mechanical causes ( like frequent styling) and even iron deficiency. Iron levels and thyroid hormone levels need to be assessed. Deficient iron,Vit B complex and zinc may lead to hair loss and dry scalp. Hypothyroidism may also present with hair loss.

Avatar m tn Hello, Pain in vulva is due to vulvodynia which can be due to many causes like persistent vaginal yeast infection, irritation to antifungal treatment , sensitivity or allergy to something touching the vulva, such as soap or bubble bath, a drop in the hormone oestrogen, causing dryness of the vulva, stress, lichen sclerosus or recurrent herpes simplex infection. Although genital warts don't cause pain, they can cause discomfort during sexual activity.

1378151 tn?1278974306 Localized alopecia or hair loss can be due to several causes and a dermatologist is the best person to contact for this. Other than that since you had heavy bleeding due to implanon, anemia could be a cause for this hair loss. Hair loss can also be due to dandruff, dermatitis, shampoos, oils, soaps, dust and dirt etc. Thyroid disorders (ruled out in your case) and diabetes too could be a cause. Insomnia, stress and anxiety along with poor diet and excess of caffeine too can be the cause.

Avatar m tn No big deal, a few months later i noticed a lot of dandruff. 6 months after that the sides of my scalp started to thin a little bit. Then my eyebrows started thinning the same way my hair did. Now i can visibly see hair falling out all over my scalp but the thing that worries me the most is the hair falling from my eyebrows. My scalp flakes a lot and it always produces these little hard keratinized bulbs when the hair falls our.

Avatar f tn Have you been to a dermatologist or endocrinologist yet? They could run some bloodwork on you and see what your hormones are doing. By iron level do you mean Ferritin level? Hairloss is tough to figure out. They are starting to do more research lately (long overdue) on the causes. I don't know if your hairloss is autoimmune or hormonal or both.
