you need to see a dermatologist. They specialise in scalp conditions.





One word of advice. If the dermatologist or your own doctor prescribes ';chemical treatments'; like propecia or rogaine do not take them. I made the mistake of taking propecia without knowing the side effects. then found out the hard way they can cause erectile dysfunction and even impotence.





f you are beginning to lose your hair there are several things you can do to stop it.





Eat a healthy diet. Hair is 95% protein and eating a diet with plenty of vitamins and proteins will not only make your hair look healthy but will


help you to keep it.





take hair supplements for There are many that contain all the vitamins and proteins your hair needs. the best ones contain DHT inhibitors that stop your body converting testosterone into DHT.





Use a good shampoo. Ideally it should have a pH between 5 and 9. If you are not sure what to use get a shampoo formulated for hair loss.What is the hair loss doctor called?..?
The most common form of hair loss in both men and women is androgenic alopecia (also known as androgenetic alopecia.) In males, this condition is known as male-pattern baldness because there is a well-defined pattern of lost hair -- over time the hairline recedes forming the ';M'; shape. Hair does not only recede but also becomes thinner, often progressing to total baldness.





As the recent research found out, male-pattern baldness is primarily caused by the increased level of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT.) It is not yet completely understood how DHT affects the scalp but it is known that if a person is genetically prone to baldness, DHT may initiate the process of so-called follicular miniaturization. This process can begin as early as the end of puberty. Follicular miniaturization leads to hair becoming progressively thinner and thinner until it is completely lost.





The good news is that it is possible to prevent and reverse baldness. Since it is primarily caused by the excess amounts of DHT, the obvious solution is to decrease the level of DHT. This can be done using synthetic chemical drugs or natural treatments.





The doctor you should see is a general practioner.
go to dermatologist... they are related to hair diseases..but better have a home care to stop hair loss at this age..
