Hello, i am a 17 year old male who has suffered from dandruff (pretty much most of my life that i can remember) and recenetly Hair loss. (From the sides of head, and a bit from temples.)

The hair loss started Roughly on Dec 2004/Jan 2005, at this time i was playing soccer every day for a couple months and i was washing my head everyday. So i stopped and i thought everything would go back to normal. It didn't and im still losing my hair and i notice it is getting a bit thinner.

My dad is bald, although he started balding in mid 20's. My Grandfather is bald, started at about 40's. And no one else in my family is bald (Except for my other grandfather but he was only bald at around 60 and my uncle at around 50).

When i was playing soccer before, i notice when i started sweating my head would get VERY VERY itchy to the point where i would have to scratch SOOOO much. I went to a dermatologist, she perscribed some sort of shampoo, i used it, to no avail.

I then went to another dermatology center and i got a perscription to another shampoo, Clobex. This shampoo i had to rub on a dry scalp and leave for 15 min and wash off everyday. It really helped with the dandruff, itchyness but the hair loss i dont think that much. So i used about a bottle of it and i stopped using it for like 3-4 days and the dandruff came back again! (Although i dont feel itchy).

I am a pretty average skinny guy (180 CM, around 71 KG). And i think i eat a pretty good diet (I never eat fastfood and limited dairy products).
If there are ANY questions that you feel you need to ask me to help with this investigation, i will be more than happy to answer. Thank you for reading.

Hair loss at your age is very rare indeed. Your problem may be due to the genes that you have inherited from your father and it would be interesting to see if my standard medication can help to arrest your loss of hair.

{EDIT from Moderator: Joe, please refrain from prescribing allopathically in this homeopathic forum.}

Use only Johnson's Baby Shampoo for your hair as this is the mildest.

1 Fish oil capsule daily will also help.

I note your problem in your palms but would prefer to treat your hair loss first.

No coffee, cold drinks and preserved meats like sausages bacon and ham.
