View allI've been noticing some hair loss around my sideburns, near my ears, and on my forehead, which is already pretty high, and even at the edges. I can feel some inflammation on my scalp in certain spots, although theres nothing visible. Its a bit uncomfortable, especially when I touch those areas. Should I be worried, or is there something I can do about it?
If the inflammation is related to seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff, a medicated shampoo with ketoconazole or salicylic acid may help reduce inflammation. For male pattern baldness, treatments like minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia) can help slow down hair loss and promote regrowth. If its a condition like alopecia areata or psoriasis, your doctor may recommend topical steroids or immune-modulating creams.consult your demat

I'm really concerned about my hair loss and I'm wondering if it's possible for telogen effluvium and female pattern hair loss to overlap, and if so, can this be treated or cured? Also, what exactly causes these issues with hair loss? It's really been bothering me and I would love some insights or advice on what to do next.
Telogen effluvium is usually triggered by stress, illness, or hormonal changes, while female pattern hair loss is often genetic. To treat Telogen effluvium, minoxidil solution can be used twice daily on the scalp. For female pattern hair loss, medications like finasteride can be prescribed to help slow down hair loss and promote hair regrowth. It is important to address the underlying causes and follow a consistent treatment plan for best results.
