Avatar n tn My hair has been thinning for the last five years I am 59 years ,through menopause ....whats up ? Maybe iron or iodine defecency?
Avatar n tn Wow, I have the same problem you have right down to the family history. No male-pattern baldness in the family, Dad losing his hair in his 60s, history of very thick hair. I've been losing hair for around 6 years now too and I'm 20, with very noticeable thinning. Dandruff, itching, everything. Hopefully someone posts on this with a clue as to what's happening.
Avatar n tn The thinning progressed rather quickly ive had to xut my hair shorter to make it blend. Prior to the thinning my hair would shed these grey flakes like dandruff especially if I was sweating or just finished playing sports. There really isnt a lot if baldness in my family my dad who is 60 has def thinned out and his dad was bald when he was old as well. Im 26 now and think im a little too yoing to be losing my hair. Btw I am African American male.
Avatar n tn I am a 24 year old woman who has long, thick brown hair. People always tell me how beautiful my hair is and comment on how silky, shiny, and thick it is. All my life I've been able to run my hands through it! About two months ago, the texture of my hair has changed and is more coarse like and is falling out. Now, when I run my hands through my hair, at least 3 to 10 hairs will come out.
Avatar n tn shoulders shampoo and salicylic acid shampoo and Ketokenazole 2% for the dandruff and that they did not know what was wrong with me. All these shampoos just made my hair fall out more and gave me more dandruff. So yet again I went to a different dermatologist, who said that I was experiencing the hair loss because of the dandruff/seborrhea. Which does not make sense, since I was experiencing hair loss 1 year prior to when the dandruff started (due to use of prescribed shampoos).
Avatar m tn I had gone into the DR regarding thinning of my hair, excessive dandruff and dry skin / folliculitis on many parts of my body. Could all these symptoms be related to EBV? I hadn't seen anyone else discussing dandruff or folliculitis on this forum so maybe it isn't related to the EBV at all. I also have some tingling in my feet/hands which it appears is pretty common with EBV. Thanks in advance, a very helpful forum!
Avatar n tn Please consult a hematologist if iron deficiency is detected. Hair loss can also be due to dandruff, dermatitis, shampoos, oils, soaps, dust and dirt etc. Thyroid disorders and diabetes too could be a cause. Insomnia, stress and anxiety along with poor diet and excess of caffeine too can be the cause. Please consult your PCP for primary examination. Take care!
Avatar n tn Thank you, do you don't think the hair thinning is permanent at the moment?
Avatar m tn I do not know my family history because I am adopted. Anyway, about 3 years ago, I started noticing my hair was thinning at the front and temples of my scalp. Over the last few years my hair has continued to gradually thin all over, however the MOST noticeable areas are in the front of my scalp and directly on the top of my head. I still have hair there. Saw the hairstylist tonight and she said my hair was noticeably thinner on top however there were no bald patches.
Avatar n tn You can also take vit B6 and vit A and E which are good for hair and skin. Try medicated shampoos for dandruff. There are a number of over-the-counter shampoos available that can help. The most effective ingredients -- antimicrobials -- to look for are zinc pyridinethione, selenium sulfide, sulfur and ketoconazole (also available by prescription). If your hair is colored, don't use products with selenium sulfide or sulfur.
Avatar m tn t cause hair loss. Scalp dandruff is part of the same condition. I think you need a visit to a skin specialist to sort things out and convince you that you are not in fact going bald, which I believe you aren't. Take care. Dr.
Avatar n tn For the last four months i am experiencing severe hair loss (thinning of hair).I dont have any dandruff,so what can be the reason for this severe hair loss.
Avatar f tn my front hairline and on the top/crown only. My scalp in these areas becomes: very oily, appears pink in color and itches uncontrollably at times. The hair that falls out is always from these areas as well and contain a small sebum plug on the hair follicle. Other times where the area itches I find yellowish sebum plugs right where it itches. I also have several rud bumps on my scalp in this same area as well. What is going on and how do I stop it?
Avatar m tn I am 22 right now, when i was 15, i had very oily skin. Then i had a period of acne, dry skin and dandruff. Right now, i have these red patches around nose, around my hairline and my collarbone. The ones at my hairline and collarbone are itchy. and Sometimes i feel itching sensation on random parts of body but no rashes. I also have dandruff, it's been 7/8 years with it, I use zinc pyrothine shampoo but it's temporary solution.
Avatar m tn 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.Other symptoms include eyelash fall, styes on my eyes, small pimples on my face, changes in my skin, itchy forehad, bleeding scalp, and beaus lines on my nails, along with minor pitting.

Avatar f tn Now on a strict Diet and excersise my hair is also thinning and a lot of dandruff. I would like to start taking follic acid to start preparing me and i heard it helps ur hair grow back what type of follic acid is good to take.
Avatar m tn These past few months i have realised that my hair has become alot thinner than it used to be.i am really quite worried because every time I wash my hair, at least about 20 hairs fall out. (I wash my hair every 2 days) not only this, my hair always feels really dry and very itchy, it sometimes even stings a bit. even when input conditioner in my hair it is still dry and itchy. Although my hair is dry I don't usually see any dandruff.
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 n tn Now more and more hair is coming out and my hair is thinning, noticeably in the front. I talked to my gyno, who said valtrex is not the problem, she has patients on valtrex that do not have that symptom. She advised to see a dermatologist. She told me its the stress I have from everyday life. I have also stopped working out since Septembere as well, not enough time to do. Please help because I have seen blogs where some people have also had the same complaint.
Avatar n tn I have issue of Dandruff where ever I have hair on body (head, chest etc), I have dandruff. Kindly let me know how I cure this problem.
Avatar n tn They do not really bother me health wise, but i am a man with thinning hair so I tend to keep it very short, which totally exposes this problem (coworkers have commented on its appearance.) I cut all of my younger brothers hair and have noticed the same thing on them in the same location. I enjoy having short hair, but am very self concious about this. Any advice would be great.

Avatar f tn She has struggles with irregular periods and bad acne over this period and then unwanted hair, dandruff, chronic fatigue, hair thinning, blackouts became major issues. Her dermatologist tried everything and suggested that she get her hormone levels tested. They found elevated testosterone and an ultrasound showed the presense of cysts. She is taking only a multivitamin, saw pawmento, fish oil, Q10, vitamin D and calcium at this point.
