Dear Dr Jain
My name is Binoj Kumar and I am 48.
My hair is very thin and I have dandruff problems since childhood.
I have controlled my hair fall in the last 3-4 years but I am very worried about my thin hair. Is there any solution to make it stronger?
Thanking you,
Binoj Kumar

Ans:

Hi Binoj

Thinning of hair has many causes.

Primarily, it is due to aging, skin infections, various skin diseases/skin conditions and hormonal changes.

The good news is that you can still get treated and get much thicker hair than you currently have.

Consult a good doctor, who will run certain tests and evaluate your condition.

Also a hair and scalp examination is mandatory, as you have mentioned that dandruff is a major problem. You may be having a long standing fungal or bacterial infection that has caused excessive thinning.

Do remember, a good diet, regular exercise and sound sleep are complementary to any medical treatment.

The following remedial measures will help with your hair thinning problem:

  • Wash your hair 2-3 times a week with a good anti-dandruff shampoo.
  • Consume a diet rich in proteins, vitamin B12, vitamin D3 and Biotin.
  • Start treatment to reduce hormonal thinning and balding by using medicated lotions which aid blood circulation in the scalp as well as reduce the effect of the hormones.
  • Regular massages without oil at least once or twice a week.
  • Take an oral multivitamin pill for a period of at least 1-3 months.

Hi My daughter get 72 percentile in jee mains 1 i dont know what happened to her otherwise she is a good student scored 94% in her 10th boards ..if i will look for some private engineering college in india pls suggest i will go with pune or will look for management quota seat for csc from banglore. Pls suggest preference order of btech college in banglore
Ans: Hello Vandana.
Requesting you not to panic at this early stage. Let her appear for JEE session 2 and the state-level engineering entrance test. Let all the results out. You have ample time to think about the available options for engineering admission. At this stage, no need to think about management quota unless and until you want a particular branch in a particular college. Depending on her score in upcoming exams, she may get admission to reputed engineering either in Pune or Bengaluru
Here are some colleges in Bengaluru: (1) R.V. College of Engineering (RVCE) (2) B.M.S. College of Engineering (BMSCE) (3) M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) (4) PES University (5) Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT) (6) Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) (7) Sir M. Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology (SMVIT) (8) BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSIT&M) (9) Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) (10) RNS Institute of Technology (RNSIT)
Suggestion - Don't panic. Keep cool yourself. Ask your daughter to focus more on JEE 2nd attempt and state-level engineering entrance test.

If you are satisfied with the reply, pl follow me or else ask again without hesitation.
Thanks
Radheshyam
