I'm 22 and I've been dealing with hair loss and thinning for quite a few years now. I've tried a bunch of medications but they just haven't worked for me. Recently, I've noticed that the density of my hair seems to have really decreased, especially in the front and sides of my head. I don't have any medical conditions like thyroid issues or anything like that. Can you suggest some natural and medical ways to address this?

I'm having this really itchy scalp and I noticed when I scratch it with my nails, there's this white stuff that comes out and I'm losing some hair too. It's been like this for about three years now. Could you suggest any remedies to help me get my hair back and solve this scalp issue?

I'm dealing with macular amyloidosis and I'm really curious if homeopathy can actually cure it. I've tried allopathy treatments like peels, lasers, and medications, but I was told it might come back. Is homeopathy able to eliminate it completely and prevent it from recurring?
