I'm 69 years now but suffering from hair thinning & fall since many many years so much so that showing baldness. Having itchy scalp all the time, sometimes very intense. Not using any medication, local or systemic. Started Tinfal (Biotin & Folic acid) tabs OD since more than 1 year. I'm Hypothyroid since last 29 yrs. But always well controlled. Also using Godrej hair colour (something I won't like to stop). Please suggest something for this itchiness in scalp, hair thinning & fall, at least so much so to cover the baldness. Thanks & regards.

Itchiness and hair fall could be because of the hair dye you are using. You can try using a herbal non ammonia dye. Also hypothyroidism, vitamin B deficiencies, iron deficiency and increased stress lead to hair fall. Ensure that you consume a nutritious diet sp rich in fruits, vegetables, nuts, proteins .Try to drink a lot of healthy fluids. Massage your scalp gently with coconut oil once or twice a week. For homoeopathic internal and external medication, please contact privately.
