You may be having seborrheic dermatitis, so use Scalpe+ Anti-Dandruff Shampoo twice a week and apply Indulekha Bringha Hair Oil thrice a week. Avoid oily or junk food and keep your scalp clean and dry. If dandruff and hair fall persist, consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

It sounds like you might be dealing with seborrheic dermatitis, which can lead to oily, flaky skin on your scalp and contribute to hair thinning. Typically, this condition is due to an overproduction of sebum and a response to a yeast called Malassezia that lives on the skin. While you’re not using oil, the scalp’s natural oils can accumulate due to these factors. To manage dandruff, consider using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole (such as Nizoral), selenium sulfide (like Selsun Blue), or zinc pyrithione (found in Head & Shoulders Clinical Strength). These active ingredients help reduce yeast production and inflammation. Use the shampoo 2-3 times a week, leaving it on the scalp for 5 minutes before rinsing. In between, you can use a gentle, non-medicated shampoo like T/Gel from Neutrogena to avoid over-drying your scalp. If you prefer to use hair oils, tea tree oil can be beneficial due to its anti-fungal properties, but use it sparingly, as overly oily products might worsen dandruff. Apply a diluted solution (like a few drops mixed with carrier oil) directly to your scalp a couple of times a week. However, while these remedies may help with dandruff, they might not directly address the hair loss issue. Since you’re experiencing significant hair thinning and a visible hairline, it might be androgenetic alopecia (male-pattern baldness) as well. This condition may require different treatments such as topical minoxidil (Rogaine) which can help with hair regrowth. If the hair loss persists or worsens, it’s wise to see a dermatologist to assess the underlying cause accurately and discuss both prescription options and lifestyle changes, as stress, diet, and overall health can play a significant role in hair health.
