Hair fall is one of the most common complaints we see at our clinic. The good news: in most cases, it is treatable. ## Normal vs Abnormal Hair Fall Losing 50–100 hair strands a day is normal. But if you're finding clumps on your pillow, in the shower drain, or on your brush, it's time to take notice. ## Common Causes - **Androgenetic alopecia** — Genetic hair loss (most common) - **Telogen effluvium** — Stress, illness, or crash diets - **Nutritional deficiencies** — Iron, Vitamin D, B12, Zinc - **Thyroid disorders** — Hypo or hyperthyroidism - **PCOS** — In women, causes hormonal hair fall - **Post-COVID** — Very common in recent years ## Diagnosis is Key Before any treatment, we perform: - Trichoscopy (dermoscopic scalp exam) - Blood tests (Ferritin, Vitamin D, Thyroid, Hormones) - Hair pull test ## Treatment Options **Medical:** - Minoxidil (topical) - Finasteride (oral, men only) - Biotin, Iron, Vitamin D supplements **Procedural:** - PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy - GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) - Low-level laser therapy **Surgical:** - FUE hair transplant for advanced cases ## The Bottom Line Early intervention is critical. The sooner you start treatment, the more hair you can save. Don't wait until the bald spot is visible.
