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
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:
