hair fall problem
I am 38 years old male, IT professional. I am suffering with hairfall for last 4-5 years. I believe that the problem started with excessive job related driving. However, 2 years back when driving stopped still the hair fall continued with almost more or less similar pace.Now my hair is falling rapidly. Whenever I sway my hand in hair 4-5 hair will come in my hand. Now, the baldness is widening on both sides of head and hair have reduced significantly in the centre of the head as well.
Recently, I got my medical check up and there every thing seem normal but T4 count is marginally high i.e. 7.0.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hey praveen,
Your T4 count may be 'a' reason for the hair fall but need not be 'the' cause of it. your symptoms are to be qualified more, so try answering the following questions.
Do u have dandruff.
is there itching in the head.
Any lesions or discolouration in the head.
does your hair fall form the root or does it breaks.
If there is itching then when is it more, is it followed by burning, is there any difference with hot/cold water. or any difference with weather etc.
generally use only one kind of shampoo and try using oils like(arnica/jaborandi) in regular basis. answer the questions we will try to get you a medicine.
Best wishes.

Thanks for your reply.
I have little dandruff not more. I do not have any itching, lesions at all. Hairfall is directly from root. There is no difference with hot and cold water/ weather.
In fact, I have found that the hair are becoming thinner. And, some hair have become white as well.

Hey,
Thanks for your time in filling the form, you have to follow some general management to maintain your hair, like applying hair oil(arnica hair oil and jaborandi hair oil) are useful, but need not be the same, both are good, try jaborandi first. apply it regularly and wash your hair with cold water, do not change shampoos often, use one kind and not so often as well.
along with this try eating healthy protein rich food, like soya, green peas and green vegetables and fruits more in your food.
The medicine for you is
Phosphorus 200 (liquid/pellets) 4-6 drops/pellets respectively, only in the morning once in every 3 days for 15 days.
Report after 15 days, the things you might note are slight reduction in the hair fall, may be a few new spruts but you may have to wait patiently till you get some results, it is not an over night thing to regain hair grwoth, so please hang on patinetly.
All the best.

It looks like you (praveen.a) and ankita01 are using the same ip address, and also present with hair fall, but i presume that you both share the same computer. anyways keep in mind both conditions are with different presentations and homeopathy treats each individual seperately.

Dr. Bagyavasan,
I have taken 5 doses of Phosphorus 200 so far. I find that there is some change in hairfall. Shall I continue with the same?

Dr. Bagyavasan,
So far, I have taken regular doses of Phosphorus 200 every 3 days. In general, I find that there is some improvement in the hairfall. Meaning that, the hair fall is some what slow now. However, I have noticed that if I pull my hair than 4-5 hair will come in my hand esp. in the centre of the head. These hair are thinner than my average. But, in other areas of the head it is not so. Based on this, I said that there is some change in the rate of hairfall.
Also to add, I have not noticed any new hair growth. And, majority of hair are greying quite fast as well.
Kindly advise.
