Anything that is coming out in clumps. Anything causing noticeable thinning of the hair. If you're seeing clumps of it on your clothes, on your pillow when you wake up, going down the shower drain, etc.





It could be something totally treatable like a thyroid problem, nutritional deficiency, or hormones, so best if you're concerned to see a doc and get some tests done.

Which doctor should I go see for my hair loss?

I have been loosing a lot of hair lately, which doctor should I go see a dermatologist or my regular doctor?Which doctor should I go see for my hair loss?
you can see a dermatologist but in the long run you will have to face reality of going bald. those big industries makes a lot of money bilking people out of their money for nothing.Which doctor should I go see for my hair loss?
Here a few simple home remedies which can be tried at home to control hair fall.





1.Rinse your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar and sage tea this helps hair grow..





2. A medicine rich in sulfur is also recommended as sulfur plays an important part in the structure of the hair.





3. Massage with olive oil before going to bed at night and next morning, wash off the hair gently..





4. To treat hair loss apply a little lemon juice with some black tea.Massage well and shampoo.





5. Beat two eggs,and add two tablespoons of water to it. Rinse hair and pour the egg mixture over the hair.Massage the scalp well and leave for 10 minutes.Then wash it.
First of all, don't stress about it. :D


Second, you can stop your hair loss like I did!


I started losing my hair and I tried Propecia and Rogaine, with little results.


I quit using them because I felt they were harming my health, so I tried to see what the 'alternative' cures had to offer.


Everything seemed like a scam: creams, oils, nothing really hit the nail for me.


Take the comment above mine, for example.


That site is a scam, I (unfortunately) know what that e-book is about: nothing!


The author needs to giveaway other e-books full of lies such as 'increase your height' or 'increase your sex appeal' because the one about hair loss is full of bulls**t.


After extensive research and two years of depression for the worsening condition of my hair, I found out the ONLY site that is genuine and works, it even has detailed VIDEOS that teach you how to exercise in order to increase the blood flow to your scalp and halt your hair loss for ever. :)


This is the only ebook that is 100% genuine (I know this for experience...), I PROMISE.


The videos are really powerful and speak for themselves.


Here's the link:


http://tunable.org/hairloss


This is not a scam, I would never cheat on somebody who is facing the same issues that I had.


Losing hair is hard enough without being ripped off...


Trust me and you WILL stop your hair loss.

Dermatologist. You can spend a small fortune on pills, creams, lotions, wigs, weaves %26amp; hair transplants - but in the end - you still must accept the inevitable %26amp; get on with the rest of your life. Life is not always the way it's supposed to be. It's just the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference. Genetics rule. You cannot re-program genetics.
A Dermatologist can determine if you have male pattern baldness or some other type of malady.
Suggest you check with your regular doctor to confirm the hair loss is not due to any illness. After that you can go to either dermatologist or trichologist (depend on your needs) for your hair loss. Below is a summary of the difference between these 3 groups of hair loss specialists:


1. Regular doctor - To determine if an illness may be associated with the hair loss.


2. Dermatologist - Specialise in treating skin related conditions. Scalp is part of the skin.


3. Trichologist - Specialise in scalp and hair disorders. To determine the rate and severity of hair loss.

What Kind of doctor I should meet to talk about my hair loss problem?

I recently noticed that my hair losing very fast than normal, and I cant figure out why it is. I doubet it is maybe some hair creams I have applied recently, I want to meet a doctor to talk abot this. But dont know what kind of doctor I should channel. Can someone tell me to who I should speak to? What Kind of doctor I should meet to talk about my hair loss problem?
Depending on where you live, you may be able to visit a trichologist. Trichologists specialize in the scientific study of scalp and hair disorders. They look at your scalp under a microscope to determine what type of hair loss you are experiencing. They can try to pinpoint to cause and offer a solution.



If you're noticing excessive amounts of hair falling out from all over the scalp you may be experiencing telogen effluvium. This type of hair loss has many possible causes. It is usually a reaction to a change or imbalance in the body.



Try to think back to a few months before the excessive hair loss began to see if their was any change, illness, stressful event, etc.



Telogen effluvium is usually temporary once the cause is identified and addressed. Essential oil formulas can be very helpful in this type of hair loss.



What Kind of doctor I should meet to talk about my hair loss problem?
Alopecia (one ';l';) is a word to look for in Yahoo or Google, make sure you type in your city as well, and you'll see who is a local Dr. that can treat you. You may also try ';DHT'; (a form of testosterone that is the cause for 95 percent of hair loss - men AND women) - another ';hair loss'; keyword.



Finding a doctor is one thing, but finding one in YOUR area is another.



copy and past in your browser:

rogaine actually ranked 4th in the review on top hair loss treatment products in the market done by http://hairrestorationtalk.com/hair-loss . so, it is a pretty good product.

regarding which doctor you should go to, i believe a dermatologist would be better equipped in this kind of problems.Seeing a doctor for hair loss?
I tried rogaine and it worked on me, did you put it on for at least two months? Coz my start working within two months. Well if you see a regular doctor he'll probably give you propecia.

Lets just say there is enough hair missing that my mom pulled me aside and talked to me about it.What doctor should I go to for hair loss?
start out by going to your regular family doctor and he/she can recommend a specialist. i'd suggest seeing a doctor before you try and treatments yourself since depending on the reason for your hair loss, some/all may not work or could make it worse. i always hesitate to answer questions regarding hair loss because i think i can tend to jump to assuming it's a disease called alopicia because my sister has this. but from the way you described how the hair is falling out it does sound like it could be. but definitely call your doctor! while there aren't any definite treatments for all people with alopecia, doctors have had sucess with a lot of experimental treatments and they vary from person to person with whether they work. i'm by no means an expert but my sister has had alopecia for almost 10 years so if you have any questions feel free to send me a message and i'll try to help you the best i can!What doctor should I go to for hair loss?

I have a family doctor but I'd rather not go to him if he is just going to refer me to someone else. What doctor do you see if you feel like you are losing more than the normal amount of hair?What doctor do you see about female hair loss?
The reaon why its good to go to ur family doc is because ur hair loss can be a result of a major health problem. He will probably want to have u go for bloodwork to determine hormone levels. Or he can just have a look at u and say okay u need ....





Hair loss can be caused by various health disorders, but a dermatologist may be able to satisfy u.What doctor do you see about female hair loss?
I looked it up and couldn't find a specific doctor--a specialist--for hair loss. My guess is that your family doctor will refer you to someone else (sorry) based on the totality of your symptoms. It may be that you have another problem that is causing the hair loss, such as hypothyroidism, so you would need to see a specialist in that area (endocrinologist for thyroid). I was losing quite a bit before I was diagnosed as hypothyroid. My generalist did some blood tests before he referred me to a specialist.
You're going to have to go to your family dr first to figure out WHY you're losing hair! If it's due to some underlying disease or condition, that has to be diagnosed first.

I went to the doctor because of hair loss and he took some blood samples. what can i expect?

i am 20, and i am not under any major stress or pressure.



what can this mean?I went to the doctor because of hair loss and he took some blood samples. what can i expect?
Hello Star, I want you to be more positive about this.. you are only very young so, lets not speculate on negative things. Its normal to lose hair with change of season and people lose certain amount of hair on daily basis. Loss of hair could be due to many other things as well like; diet, stress, hormonal change in your body (this is common for teens or early 20's), weather change and god knows what else. If you saw just howmuch hair I lose on daily basis, you would think I was bald. I wake up to pillow full of hair everyday but, I am 43 and still have more hair than I would imagined I would have when I was your age. There could be other underlying cause for your hair and you might not know it so, sometimes, blood test is there to check the possible cause of other things. If your family have no history of anyone suffering from major disease, chances are you will be fine as well. Both of my parents have died from different form of cancer yet, my siblings and I are still alive and kicking so, just focus on other things and don't stress about the possible outcome.. they say that always hope for the best and expect the worst but, in this case, I wouldn't even do that.. you will be fine..I went to the doctor because of hair loss and he took some blood samples. what can i expect?
People's hair grows in cycles that last from two to seven years. Each strand has its own seven-year cycle until it is finally shed as a normal part of washing or brushing. People can expect to lose between 100 and 200 strands of hair each day. Now, it's cause for concern if hair comes out by the handfuls, or if there are sores or scabs on the scalp. Also, some hair loss is permanent and some is temporary.

- The most common permanent hair loss is called pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Males with pattern baldness start to lose hair in the front, sides, and crown of their heads. Women with pattern baldness typically find their hair thinning around the front and the crown of their heads. While pattern baldness can start anytime after puberty, it's most common for it to begin in a person's 20's. Some people with pattern baldness become completely bald, others don't. Pattern baldness is usually hereditary, although not always. Although pattern baldness is permanent, there are some treatments available that a doctor could recommend after diagnosing it.

- Some types of hair loss indicate an underlying problem. Sometimes, hair falls out weeks or months following psychological stress or trauma to the body. When small round patches of hair fall from the scalp, it could be a sign of alopecia areataan incurable, but sometimes treatable, disease of the immune system. This usually occurs in childhood or young adulthood, although it could occur at any age. Trauma to the scalp or hair can also cause hair loss (traumatic alopecia). This occurs when hair is pulled into braids or other hairstyles or when hair is damaged by heat from hot rollers or dryers. Also, when chemical treatments (i.e., perms, dye, straighteners) are used improperly they can burn the scalp or cause hair to break mid-strand. Use of some drugs like anabolic steroids and amphetamines is also linked to hair loss. Hair loss can also be a symptom of an underlying medical condition like diabetes, lupus, or thyroid disease. It could also signal poor nutrition. Sometimes people lose hair as a result of a fungal infection to the scalp (ringworm or tinea capitis). In these cases, the scalp gets flaky or scaly and hair breaks of at the scalp.



Keep open communication with your doctor. At this point, I don't see any reason to be terribly worried. Your doctor will advise you on what to do.



Good luck, and get well soon!
he could be checking your Biotin (vitamin B7) levels. Hair loss is a symptom of Biotin deficiency.

What type of doctor do you see for hair loss?

I am only 20 and seem to be loosing more hair than normal. Anyone know whay type of doctor I need to see or what could be causing this?What type of doctor do you see for hair loss?
Considering your age, -- and assuming you're not a cancer patient or something -- I would start with either an endocrinologist (to check the specifics of your hormone levels) or a dietician to examine your nutrition.

A dermatologist can tell you if you are harming your scalp with shampoos, soaps or other products.

As always, start with your GP and let him/her refer you.

Good luck!!What type of doctor do you see for hair loss?
Hi Shannon, for hair loss problems, you can see a dermatologist, skin specialist or trichologist (hair expert). For hair loss, the first suspect is often the thyroid. If the thyroid is ok, then it could be genetic or simply nutrient deficiency. You can check out info about hypothyroidism and vitamins for hair loss from this site:



http://www.hairlossmentor.com/minerals-a



Have a nice day. Your worries may turn out to be a small matter which can be corrected easily. By the way, do you know that losing 100 hairs a day is considered normal?
All of the above answers are correct. Lack of iron, poor diet, stress, low or high thyroid all can cause hair loss. Have you switched shampoos lately? My son used a shampoo called BedHead and it make his hair fall out-I'm not kidding!

Most people will lose between 50-100 hairs per day believe it or not. If you believe it's not for any of the reasons listed above, and you are losing 'plugs'; of hair or it's coming out in your fingers and never ceases, you need to make another appointment with the doctor and it's really up to the patient to be emphatic and say ';STOP...LISTEN...something is wrong!'; Some doctors just don't slow down and stop for 5 minutes unless you really call them on it. Good luck.
This could be a hormone problem, thyroid problem or iron deficiency. I would start with your family doctor.
Dermatologist

What type of doctor should I see about hair loss?

Everytime, I saw the article about hair loss and they also advise people to consult with doctor. However, they never mention what type of doctor should we visit? Does anyone visit doctor and get good result? What is my expectation?What type of doctor should I see about hair loss?
You would need to see a Dermatologist, since hair is an extension of the skin.What type of doctor should I see about hair loss?
They mean just your regular physician, but that means they just want someone to rule out any illnesses. Some people grow a little bit of feathers using Rogain, but not a lot of hair growth. If you do not have a medical condition or bad stress causing the hair loss, then cut your losses, get a short haircut like others losing their hair (its good looking too) like john travolta, et. al., orrrr go to a reputable hair replacement specialist. They cost big $$$ though.... If all else fails, some men look great bald.

My husband lost most of his hair when he tried to dye it. What doctor should he go to to find out if there is anything that he can do besides hair transplant. I just can't figure out what type of doctor to see. Any advise?What doctor to see for hair loss?
That would be a dermatologist. He has probably burned his scalp. The skin on the scalp is just as important as the skin on the rest of the body. The dermatologist can determine how badly his scalp is damaged and recommend the best course of treatment.

I have hair loss problem so my Doctor recommended Minoxydil soln but now i seem to hav lost a lot of hair?

I was using Minoxydil 5% soln for one month now.But now i think i my hair has thinned down considerably and some of my scalp is viewable when standing in sunlight i am desperate wht to doI have hair loss problem so my Doctor recommended Minoxydil soln but now i seem to hav lost a lot of hair?
In some cases there is some shedding due to the first applications of Minoxidil, but hang in theres visible result only appear after 6 months and only if you apply twice daily.

You should also consider Propecia (Finasteride, Proscar, etc.), it has good synergy with Minoxidil so it will boost your hair regain and halt your hair loss.

I used alot of different products so I cant say in particular which one helped most or maybe it was the fact I just came off the medication but one website I found particularly help full was http://www.hairrestorationdaily.com/


It has alot of articles on it all about hair loss treatments and medications.


Hope this helps because I know how stressed it made me (which can also be part of the problem)


Anyways best of luck!!What kind of doctor deals w/hair loss?
A family practitioner can get you started on the right track.


Hair loss can be caused by many things, like a problem with your thyroid. Your Dr. will order a bunch of tests to find the root of the problem, to the hair loss. Once the problem is discovered, you will be referred to a doctor that specializes in that area.





However, if it is caused by the medication - the only way to get your hair back to normal is to change medications if possible.





I was on Wellbutrin and my hair fell out so much it was scary. I was very upset. It took 6 months after I stopped taking Wellbutrin, for it to get out of my system, and my hair to return to normal.
Medicines can have different affect on each person, talk to your doctor about what she is taking, if the side effect is one she is really concerned about see what else can they give her, otherwise, besides vitamins, look for stimulates for hair and scalp growth.

anyway as we know - hair loss can be caused by many different reasons! Find out the actual cause of hair loss! There are many causes of loss of hair such as stress, poor nutrition ,medications, thyroid dysfunctions, illness, fungal infections ,hormonal problems, to mention a few.





year ago my husband suffered very much from hair loss too and he started trying everything you can imagine to stop his hair loss. the things that really worked for him was:





1) Vitamin A - an anti-oxidant which promotes healthy production of sebum in the scalp;





2) Vitamin E stimulates circulation. Good blood circulation in the scalp is important in keeping hair follicles productive. The 'B' vitamins contribute to melanin, which gives hair its healthy color and also stimulates blood circulation;





3) massage is also beneficial. Massage stimulates circulation. As already noted, good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Experts suggest a few minutes of daily head massage by hand. Circulation through massage may be improved by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base with massage;





4) Try rubbing your scalp with garlic juice, Onion Juice or Ginger Juice(you can either of one out of three, Do not mix any of two or three);





5) also he used herbal treatment - TrichoZed


It is a good product that helps prevent hair loss and it is an FDA approved product. I think it is very important!





It worked and still works for him!





I do not know if any pharmacies carry TrichoZed but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here http://www.trichozed.info/why.php





It enhances hair growth by blocking DHT (Dihydrotestostrone) - a major cause of hair loss!





good luck!

Anti-Hair Loss Shampoos





Anti-Hair Loss Shampoos : Rub-a-Dub Dub – But Gently PleaseOne easy-to-try option is a shampoo specifically designed to increase the health of existing hair and to reduce the rate of hair loss in both men and women. There are several sources to investigate specific shampoos, research studies which can be accessed to determine the effectiveness of many of these products. Good professional sources include dermatologists and licensed cosmeticians who see hair loss conditions frequently and have had the opportunity to observe the efficacy of a variety of shampoos. As well, an Internet “Google” search will provide hundreds of products, complete with testimony and small research studies.It’s easy to get confused when investigating the hundreds of shampoos available. With some background knowledge of what has shown to be effective in larger, previous studies, however, you can make more intelligent choices about the shampoos you choose for experimentation. And that is the great thing about shampoos – they are relatively inexpensive in this maze of hair loss/regrowth methods, so you can try lots of them without breaking your budget!1. Surfactants: People feel good when their shampoos lather up nicely. Lather, however, is just for psychological effect. Somehow we believe that the more lather a shampoo produces, the cleaner our hair must be getting. Hogwash! The ingredient that causes lather is call a surfactant and does not have cleaning properties. Other ingredients in shampoos actually do the cleaning. Surfactants are, however, pretty harsh, and, for someone who is experiencing more-than-normal hair loss, surfactants should be avoided. There are lots of shampoos out there without it – try some.2. Herbal Ingredients: The most notable herb with some success in hair loss difficulty is Saw Palmetto. Shampoos with this ingredient are certainly worth a try. Saw Palmetto seems to inhibit the production of DHT in men, for example, and DHT causes hair follicles to shrink and close up.3. Nettle and bay have also been helpful to some people. Shampoos which include these might help you too.4. Essential Oils: These oils are concentrated ones which come from plants such as lavender. From ancient times, these have been used to stimulate healthy hair and to decrease the rate of hair loss. We know that we have much to learn from early medicine men and healers. Perhaps this is another example.5. Tea Tree Oil: Many swear by this ingredient, and there are several brands of this on the market. So popular are these shampoos, you can find them at most any drug store as well as health product retailers. As an aside, tea tree oil has also been found to be effective in the prevention of head lice infestations.There are no definitive studies to show that shampoos can actually result in regrowth of hair that is caused by what we all “permanent” conditions, largely the result of heredity and hormones. However, early prevention is important, and experimenting with shampoos during these early stages may provide invaluable help in reducing the rate of loss.
