Answers to some common questions of a doctor who specializes in hair loss.
Q: Hair loss is a very common problem. Almost everyone has this problem. What is the normal level of human hair loss?
Answer: We think that hair loss is mainly a problem of the head. However, the hair is in many places. In the head, in the eyes, in the body. However, we are usually aware of the problem of hair on the head. We have estimated that there are one lakh hairs on the head. If 100 to 150 hairs fall from here every day. There is a cycle of hair, but it has to be filled. Many came to us and said, 'Sir, all my hair has fallen out.' I say, 'How many have you read?' Says, ‘Sir it falls like a hundred’. Truth be told, it isn't unexpected to lose a hundred hairs. For this situation no treatment is required.
Q: What advice do you have when patients come to you with hair loss problems?
Answer: First we ask how much hair you have. Then I ask her age, how many sons and daughters she has, whether she has any systemic disease, whether she is taking any medicine. I try to diagnose the cause of hair loss. Many people find that they use extra soap on their hair and shampoo it every day. Many people shampoo 2-3 times a day. Someone may have a fever, hair loss; Someone may have cancer. Someone may fall for hereditary reasons. But there are various reasons for hair loss.
There are different types of hair loss. We usually divide hair type into two parts. One is non-scarring, the other is scarring. The upper part of the hair is called hair shape. However, the root is the hair follicle, it is inside the skin.
Some patients come with a disease in which some hair has grown in places. It could be in the head. May be bearded. May be elsewhere. There are many reasons for this. These are usually called autoimmune diseases. They have good treatment. That is the thing that we are doing each day. The recovery rate is very good.
Q: What kind of treatment do you do for hair loss in these places?
Answer: First we understand the patient mentally. This is not a problem, treatment is possible here. This problem can occur at any age. However, young people are more prone to this problem. After giving advice like this, we start the medicine. First we give a type of steroid. It is applied twice a day, to the affected area. The best treatment is to give injections here. However, people are afraid to give injections in the head. However, in terms of effectiveness, injection is good. I do it once a month.
Q: How long can this hair come back?
Answer: It usually takes two to three injections. However, it is often seen that the hair is growing where the injection is being given. But the hair is falling around again. They also need to be injected again. Then the hair rose again. As far as I'm concerned, if the problem is all over the head, it may be difficult to get hair out. However, if it is in place, it can be treated as expected.
Q: Do we see some advertisements of malpractice for remedy? What can be the benefit of going to these places?
Answer: No. The malpractice that happens is actually hereditary. The hair has grown on the front or the hair on the back. Those who get these diseases at a young age, say 20 to 30 years, are not married. They go to different places. Kabiraji, homeopathy etc.
We have a lot of treatments, we are giving topical therapy, we are giving tablets. If not, I suggest wearing loose hair. In our country but now hair transplant has also started.
Q: How are you doing hair transplant? And when are you doing it?
Answer: The patient may be very worried about hair loss. She needs to stop hair loss quickly, then we do a hair transplant. Other drugs are delayed. In many cases it does not work again. In that case hair transplant is better. These are being done in many ways, in 2-3 ways.
You will see that people are bald, but not bald in the back. When we put that hair in front, the risk of hair loss is very low.
Q: And if there is no hair on the back, what is done in that case?
Answer: In that case hair is no longer available. Lately, of course, something is being done with Axilla and Beer. However, how much hair is in these places? So if there is no hair on the back scalp, then there is a problem.
Q: How successful are you in this case?
Answer: We have done about 2-3 cases. Their results are good. And it is quite beneficial. I recently did a course in India. But they are very successful in this regard. They are doing it twice a day. However, our country has not yet made such an expert in this regard. We hope this can be done better in the near future.
In this case, the young doctors are doing well. We are old. We are sending young people out for training on this subject. I believe that these will improve a lot in this country in the future.
Q: What to do to prevent hair loss?
Answer: If we can diagnose the causes of hair loss, then the cause is known. For example, using extra shampoo. Many people use shampoo twice a day. This is not right.
Many people have dandruff on their head. This is also the reason for hair fall. In the case of girls but due to crash dieting we get more hair loss. It is also due to the use of some unnecessary oil in the hair.
Hair care must be taken. We have to continue as we need to. The hair will be good.
Q: Do you lose your hair when you are in the sun?
A: No, hair has nothing to do with the sun. There are some connective diseases of the hair, in which case we forbid going to the sun. However, the hair will fall, so I do not forbid to go out in the sun.
