How to get rid of gradual hair fall at the center of my head?
Patient: Hi Dr. I am having a gradual hair fall at the center of my head and a small patch(1 cm x 1 cm) where sculp can be seen in the left side of my head. Pls provide me the solution for this problem as well as ur contact details as I stay in Bathinda itself. Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.  You seem to have androgenetic alopecia. It is characterized by hair loss and gradual thinning of hair from the front, mid and vertex of the scalp. Minoxidil solution and finasteride tablet are approved medications for androgentic alopecia in males. I suggest you to use 1ml of minoxidil solution, twice daily on scalp skin. In addition I suggest you to take an oral antiandrogen i.e finasteride 1mg tablet, once a day for long. Treatment is long term and it is better to start treatment in early grade of hair loss, as it is easier to preserve existing hair than to regrow new hairs.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
