Doctors’ responses
Hello dear See you are quite young and it’s seems stress is the causative agent for baldness. Iam suggesting some medications for improvement. Please follow them for atleast 2-3 months Minoxidil (2% or 5%) for hair gain OTC solution to be given topically
Finasteride on recommendation only by dermatologist Biotin- medications for growth Ketoconazole 2% (Nizoral) – antifungal shampoo twice a day
Selenium Sulfide (Selsun Blue) – antifungal shampoo Avoid exposure to pollen or contaminated area Lastly,Use bhringraj or onion oil for head massage Hope your problem subsides by my solutions . In case of no improvement in 1 month, consult dermatologist in person for better clarification Regards
Hello keshav As stress plus male pattern baldness can be cause for this
Minoxidil 5 percent twice daily Side effects - initial shedding of hair, flanky skin Topical Finasteride 0.25%
Supportive treatments
Anti-dandruff shampoo (ketoconazole 2%) twice a week → helps both dandruff & hair loss.
Supplements for greying + hair strength:
Biotin + Multivitamin (with zinc, iron, B12, vitamin D, copper).
Omega-3 (flaxseed, fish oil).
For hair thinning and crown baldness, topical minoxidil is usually the first-line treatment as it works directly on the scalp with fewer side effects than oral medicines. Finasteride (oral) can also help but may have side effects like reduced libido, so it must be taken under a Dermatologist’s supervision after proper evaluation. Since you also have early greying and work stress, please consult a Dermatologist for a full hair analysis, vitamin tests, and a safe, tailored treatment plan.
