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 f tn The last few weeks my scalp his been itching something awful, it is centered around the crown. I don't have dandruff and dandruff shampoo makes it worse. I have taken to washing my hair once a week because it itches so badly. The itching is making my head hurt. Please help.
Avatar m tn my problem of hair is a problem of thinning . I still have all my hair but more thin ,so i read that this laser can can make them more dense . In this technology is not known so my dermatologist does not know that answer to me . I want to try. In any case, the situation will not get worse right? My only doubt is : can i use laser hair and isotretinoin in the same period???

Avatar f tn I'm 21, and I used to have extremely long and thick eyelashes. About 2 yrs. ago, I started having back problems, which became degenerative disk disorder, spinal stenosis, sciatica, etc. I now have extensive nerve damage. The point is that ever since this began, my eyelashes have been falling out. I'll admit I'v never been very nice to my lashes, with lots of mascara and probably not proper removal of it, but I've still never had a problem until this happened.
Avatar n 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 telogen effluvium, infectious disease and Alopecia areata. If there is underlying disease or nutritional deficiency .Give your diet an overhaul if you're lacking vital nutrients for growth and switch to foods for healthy hair.

Avatar n tn Hi there, There are many types of hair loss like involutional alopecia, androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium etc.A genetic predisposition has been commonly observed as a cause of hair loss.Stress,illness,fungal infections of the scalp, certain medications, autoimmune conditions like alopecia areata all can lead to hair loss. It is best to see a dermatologist and get examined. Early treatment can give good results. Do keep me posted. Take care and best wishes!
1142540 tn?1261368153 Hundreds of people have blogged and complained about how the acne drug; Doryx, is linked to losing huge amounts of hair on the scalp. I'm experiencing the same problem. had very thick coarse and pretty hair. Now it's becoming thin stringy and nappy. I am freaking out big time and really sad. I'm 22 years old and my dermatologist has had me on this drug for a couple years and at first this did not happen, now it comes out in clumps and I shed everywhere.
Avatar n tn Since you had itching at the time of hair loss also, so the possibilities of alopecia aereata, contact dermatitis or an allergic reaction to any shampooleading to itching and hair loss, hormonal imbalance(overproduction of dihydrotestosterone and thyroid hormones irregularities),malnutrition and sebum plugs on skin also need to be evaluated along with tinea capaitis.
Avatar m tn This is the 3rd summer in a row that I have been having problems with my scalp. I have been kind of keeping track and every year, for the last 3 years, I have gotten an itchy scalp that feels a lot like a normal dry scalp in the month of July and lasts until about March the next year. It is set off by me itching it or the scalp getting irritated by any kind of touch (ie hood, hat, someone else touches it) There is no redness or allergen like bumps of any kind.

Avatar m tn I also have lots of dandruff from wearing a hat. can dandruff cause temporary hair loss? and is head and shoulders shampoo good or bad for the hair.
Avatar m tn Hello doctor. For the past month or so I have been using an anti-dandruff shampoo named "Triatop". It's main ingredient is "Ketoconazole". I've use it twice a week. Since I have noticed that my hair has thinned out a bit. Since this discovery I haev stopped use. My main question and concern is if the hair loss is permanent or if my hair will grow back again? I am 22 years old. What is your opinion on this and is there any action I should take? Thank you for your time.
Avatar n tn I'm 14yrs old(bday was november26th) and it's been almost a year from now and I still have dandruff!! I've tried a lot of things. I don't know what to do!it would be great if you could help me.
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 n tn We have a 16.5 year old Bermese-mixed cat, who is (within the last 10 days) losing her fur in clumps. She is an indoor cat. Our other cat, who's 16 was raised with her with no signs of the same condition affecting her. We have not changed her cat food and have not found any flea droppings on her at all. The only changes in the house, was a recent loss of our 13 yr old dog and an addition of a 7 mo puppy in December.

Avatar n tn It started out of the blue, my scalp became very itchy and I could not help scratching it, when I scratched it, what appeared to be white flakes of skin came off. I thought this was just normal dandruff so bought Anti-dandruff shampoo (over the years I have tried every Anti-dandruff shampoo you can think of, even stuff from my GP).
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.
1378151 tn?1278974306 OLD OUTTA ALABAMA wHO IS DEALING wITH HAIR LOSS. DOCTORS SAY ITS ALOPECIA AND THEY ARE BLAMMING IT ON STRESS, ANXIETY, AND DEPRESSION. AND I THINK NOT! I GRADUATED SCHOOL MAY 2009 AND MET THE LOVE OF MY LIFE THE FOLLOwING OCTOBER. I CAN'T RECALL COMPLAINING ABOUT ANYTHING IN MY LIFE BESIDES THE IMPLANON AND HAIR LOSS. I HAD THE IMPLANON INSERTED APRIL 2009.
Avatar f tn Hair loss along with loss of eyelashes can be due to alopecia areata, thyroid problems, tinea capitis or ringworm of the scalp, certain ovarian and adrenal gland problems. In alopecial areata, the hair grows back again after some time. Also in this condition there is complete loss of eye lashes. The hair loss is not accompanied by any other symptoms. If you have scalp itchiness then you must look at dandruff or tinea capitis.
Avatar m tn m not sure if this is what I have. Does alopecia normally cause severe dandruff in the eyebrows and a slight itch? Please somebody help me out here. I don't have money for a doctor and this has been really, really, really depressing. I was seriously a good looking guy just a few months ago and I feel like an aging process that normally takes years for most people has happened to me in months, and I'm really down.
Avatar f tn I'm having some very bad dandruff since i got pregnant. nothing helps. I've tried t-gel and head and shoulders. Any other suggestions?
