Found this channel a few months ago , and just by changing my diet to proper blood type and following the massage/shampoo methods my hair is starting to look fuller and healthier. More importantly have a positive attitude that it can work for you. You’ll look at yourself differently and make the little extra micro moves that will get you there. You can do it Good luck

What should optimal folate be? I've struggled since I was 15 with hair loss. I would go to doctors telling them I was so tired all the time and they'd tell me it was anxiety. When I turned 25, I was literally dying. Couldn't get out of bed really. All my hair fell out. Went to 35 doctors in 2 years. One doctor finally tested my ferritin and d3 and it was bottom low. Found out I was bleeding out every month with heavy periods that I inherited from my grandma. Here, I was gaslighted that these periods were normal. I demanded iron shots because after a year of iron pills it only went up to 48 from 10 and I was in misery. Iron pills are slooow because of hepcidin. D3 pills worked faster. I took d3 with magnesium. I got ferritin and d3 and magnesium up to optimal levels. Most of my hair came back. I've been taking zinc to get my blood level up from 76 to 90. I'm still loosing little spots of hair on sides and top of head that are painful. I bought a 5 hair strand test that said I was low in folate, b3, omega 3, vitamin a and vitamin k. Most of these doctors are so dismissive of nutrient levels. They see they are in "range" but they are based off the general population who are mostly deficient. The ranges aren't accurate from regular doctors. Why dont they update them? What level of folate is optimal? I've been reading studies at I found 25.5 kept popping up. Is that right? You are awesome. You have condensed everything I've learned in the last 5 years into 1 video.
Ranges are developed by blood testing establishments as a bulk normal range for all humans in the typical test group. Can range from country to country and from lab to lab. The general rule is that you need to be in the middle of the range. Folate approximately 9 to 12 nanograms per milliliter would be ideal
You’re welcome! 😊 Microneedling can actually be an excellent tool for hair growth when done correctly, but it’s important to understand when and how to use it. Here’s a breakdown: --- ### **Is Microneedling Recommended?** **Yes, microneedling is recommended** in many cases, especially for hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). However, it needs to be done properly to avoid potential side effects. --- ### **How Microneedling Helps with Hair Growth**: 1. **Improves Absorption**: It enhances the absorption of topical treatments like minoxidil or growth serums. 2. **Stimulates Follicles**: The tiny injuries from microneedling boost blood flow and trigger the release of growth factors that promote hair growth. 3. **Collagen Production**: Supports healthier, stronger scalp skin, which is crucial for hair follicles. --- ### **When Microneedling May Not Be Recommended**: 1. **Active Scalp Conditions**: Avoid microneedling if you have active infections, severe dandruff, or scalp inflammation (e.g., psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis). 2. **Improper Tools or Technique**: Using needles that are too deep or applying too much pressure can damage the scalp. Always stick to recommended lengths (e.g., **0.5-1.5 mm** for hair loss). 3. **Overdoing It**: Microneedling too frequently can cause irritation and hinder healing. A good schedule is once every **7-14 days**. --- ### **Pro Tips for Safe and Effective Microneedling**: - **Clean Tools and Scalp**: Always disinfect the derma roller/pen and ensure your scalp is clean before starting. - **Pair with Topicals**: Use products like **minoxidil**, **platelet-rich plasma (PRP)**, or growth serums after microneedling to enhance their effects (but only if your scalp tolerates it). - **Be Gentle**: Avoid heavy pressure. Let the tool glide across the scalp. - **Patience Pays**: Results typically appear after a few months of consistent use. --- ### **Bottom Line**: Microneedling can be a powerful addition to your hair loss routine if done carefully. It’s definitely worth considering, but consult a dermatologist or trichologist first if you’re unsure about your scalp’s condition. ➡️ For more guidance or product recommendations, check out www.advancedtrichology.com/. 💡💪

Thanks doc for the information.. I didn't know about the diet for specific blood type till now.. I am O+ and I always feel not so good after eating gluten and extra spoon of sugar.. My skin, hair feels dull dry, dull after eating those no matter what I use superficially and sometimes there is allergic reaction which I don't get the root cause even after examination.. This video will be a life changing one for me.. Again thanks doc!!
It’s great to hear that you found the video so insightful! Understanding the unique needs of your blood type can indeed make a significant difference in how you feel overall, including the health of your hair and skin. Since you've noticed specific reactions after consuming gluten and sugar, it might be beneficial to continue monitoring these effects and adjust your diet accordingly.

So, I live in the UK and find these videos extremely useful. The UK has been a stressful country to live in for a while now, for various reasons including BREXIT, the pandemic, unstable governments and the economy. Stress in my view is a big factor in hair loss. I will be exploring the ideas offered as I am 61 now and have started losing the hair to the top of my head over the last 6 months. I am sure it is a combination of a stressful country, job and lifestyle/mindset. Poor sleep through stress, poor diet choices and statins, that I have stopped taking. I knew nothing about eating for blood groups, so will explore that and the rest I will act on now. Getting bloods in the UK is not easy with the NHS not likely to help. I will explore this too. I have given up alcohol, I drink more water, avoid heat to my scalp, wash my hair with organic phosphate free shampoo and a ‘grow me’ type too. I have lived a high stress life for as long as I can remember, so I have ‘stopped my world and got off’ for as long as it takes. If the hair goes so be it, it’s rather the journey of self discovery that I am on that I’m hoping will help me in the long run. I’ve stopped worrying about the hair loss, which seems to be helping my state of mind more. I am practicing the art of saying no more, which again helps. Many thanks for sharing the knowledge you do, it’s an amazing thing you do.
Thank you for sharing your journey-your approach is inspiring and insightful! 🌟 It’s clear you’re addressing hair loss holistically, and you’re absolutely right: stress can be a major factor. Chronic stress not only impacts our mental health but can also lead to hair thinning by disrupting hair cycles, weakening follicles, and even influencing diet and sleep choices, as you’ve noted. You’re already implementing excellent strategies, like drinking more water, avoiding heat, choosing gentle shampoos, and focusing on nutrition. Tackling stress by taking breaks, practicing mindfulness, and saying “no” when needed are all powerful steps, too. Hair loss can feel overwhelming, but your decision to focus on self-discovery and prioritize inner peace will positively impact not only your hair but your overall well-being. For blood testing, if the NHS access remains limited, private options are available in the UK, offering comprehensive blood panels (including nutrient levels and hormone balance) which might give you more insight. Above all, your mindset is your greatest ally. Learning to accept the process and focusing on health, self-care, and inner peace can be transformative. 🌱 Keep exploring, and thank you for reminding us of the importance of self-discovery and resilience. ➡️ Reach out to us at [www.advancedtrichology.com/](www.advancedtrichology.com/) if you ever need more insights along the way.
You can easily obtain private blood tests in the UK if you have the money. I learnt that when I was severely vitamin D deficient. I was told I had to pay privately and find a private provider to do it myself every year as the NHS won't as it costs them too much. Also doctors are only concerned about you being ill rather than you reaching optimal levels. So while they use the same labs the ranges are smaller on some private tests.
I’ve been trying to regrow my hair for months . Listening to everything you say but in the last few weeks my hair loss has progressed to the point where I’m not even sure it’s worth keeping anymore . My whole top of my head is bald but I’m still trying to hold on . I’m extremely disappointed as I trusted you but yet nothing has changed . Infact getting worse Edit: 2 months later and by not giving up and trusting the process I’ve been able to save my hair and started regrowing lost hair
Ok, I am sorry to hear that. But obviously, I know nothing about your individual situation. Have you gotten any blood tests? Are you on medication? How old are you? What have you done so far? Etc.. I wish it was as easy as watching a couple UA-cam videos and figuring it out but you may need some individual attention.
Most people are suffering due to inflammatory issues…. Your gut and intestines should be properly cleanse… Use herbs such as cascara sagrada and senna leaf… next cleanse your liver and kidneys with herbs such as dandelion, burdock root, and milk thistle… next you have capillaries which are micro vessels that send oxygen to the scalp, your blood needs proper flowing and nitric oxide and beets would help with that. Take a liquid saw palmetto capsule of at least 400mg EVERYDAY, you should see results, I hope that helps you.
there is literally a disclaimer at the beginning of this video. every body is different you should know that by now. if it's a serious issue go consult YOUR doctor as they know more about your health than he does
Dude. Do not listen to this guy. He’s telling you nonsense about nutrition because he SELLS SUPPLEMENTS. There are only two FDA approved treatments for AGA: Finasteride and Minoxidil. Follow the hard data when looking for medical intervention. Finasteride (and dutasteride) will stop the progression of AGA by inhibiting 5AR, and minoxidil will stimulate regrowth of lost hair. If you’re a non-responder to minoxidil then you just need to boost your scalp SULT1A1 levels with by combining it with Tretinoin. Everything else people are trying to sell you are snake oils.
Great video Doctor! I apply some of these methods myself, plus the scalp massaging techinque you have mentioned in your other videos. One question: Is shedding between 40-60 hairs a day considered normal? (I read that losing up to 100 is normal, however, I do want know if that is true)
Hi doctor! Great video and very informative but I have one question: I’ve been noticing my follicles hardening,the content inside becomes like a blackhead but on the scalp,what could be the cause of that? I do have seborrheic dermatitis and androgenetic alopecia. I’ve tried many different types of shampoo and none has a significant effect,but your video opened my eyes that my diet could probably be the source of all the inflammation on my scalp.
Hey Doc! I really think you should conduct research to find the true reason for genetic hair loss given your passion❤. Would be epic if you find some loophole or something
I have Male pattern baldness. I can only wash my hair once a week max. (Sometimes I do an ACV rince in between) I use other interventions but if I wash my hair any more than that no matter what shampoo I use my scalp flares up and my hair stops growing and thins more. This is my situation. Obviously different for everyone but there is no one size fits all treatment for hairloss. Whether it’s DHT related/inflammatory or nutritional
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist always appreciate your videos. Saw palmetto seems to irritate my gut. Do you have any other recommendations for an oral DHT reducer?
Hair loss started at age after I started taking tretion tablets and antibiotics for pimples, currently 33, hair fall never stopped, things went out of hands after delivery 4 years ago, tried allopathy, homeopathy, multivitamins, hair growth serums, no permanent effect, now back to square one after stopping all treatment Thinking of blood work to get to know the root cause..Advice doc
I had a question, you talked about shampooing hair daily(i have thinning hair) and you talked about shampooing 2 cycles in one shower. Now as i am shampooing daily should i do it twice?
Honestly, I have just about given up. There’s so many supplements that I cannot take because of my esophagus & stomach issues. Genetics is a player in my hair loss.
Have you tried the dht blocker with immune support? The genetics is very straightforward and easy to deal with. Worst case , you could use Finasteride Internally or topically. You're having so many stomach issues plays right into the core problem with inflammation and gut issues that actually make the dht issue substantially worse and create nutritional problems where they did not exist originally. Inflammation and the nutritional aspects of both, make the dht problem far more challenging to manage unless you have mitigated both underlying other causes. I would focus on eating correctly for your blood type, making sure you get at least 25GRAMS of prebiotic fiber in your diet every single day, and do something to manage the dht as well as get blood tests for everything I mentioned in this video.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist Thank you so much for your response. I will work on this. I have not tried the dht blocker with immune support. My ferritin is extremely low & the iron supplement made me have an esophageal & stomach flair. Thank you again.
@@MichaelT83310 I did but I can’t take 4 pills/day. My ferritin is up but not enough. I use a patch for the iron. My hair is still falling out. So, I’m screwed.
@@MichaelT83310 I replied but I don’t know where it went. I got the DHT blocker but I can’t take 4 pills a day. I am on an iron patch & my ferritin is up but it’s still far from optimal. All other blood work is good. My shedding continues & no regrowth. Ugh!😑
Hello Doctor, I'm from Morocco, I've been following my diet, oils and rosemary for 4 months, I do massage daily, and now I'm starting to feel tingling in the place of baldness, is this tingling evidence that the hair started to growPlease help me!
I’m a 42 yo female, and have been losing hair all over my scalp diffusely and consistently, top, sides, back, everywhere. Bloodwork for hormones and vitamins was normal, thyroid normal except tpo was a little high but my dermatologist said she wasn’t concerned. I’ve had vertical ridges in my nails for a few years now, and I do have scalp itch in random spots all over my scalp everyday even right after washing. I also have dandruff. I’m using ketoconazole 2% and clobetasol and eating healthier and drinking tons of water. I’m also taking Nutrafol and a couple other supplements religiously. My hair is still falling. It’s been months and months with no end in sight. I’ve lost over half of my hair density and am more and more depressed everyday. I can’t even leave my house anymore, let alone look in a mirror. I thought it might be thyroid, or demodex, or diffuse alopecia areata. ?
I'm truly sorry to hear about your distressing experience with hair loss. Considering the diverse symptoms you've described-diffuse hair loss, scalp itch, and nail changes-it might be beneficial to look beyond conventional diagnoses. The vertical ridges in your nails and scalp itch, combined with hair loss, could suggest a more complex underlying issue, possibly related to nutrient absorption or an inflammatory condition that hasn't been adequately addressed by standard blood tests. William Gaunitz often discusses the importance of thorough evaluations and not overlooking subtle signs like nail changes and scalp health. Since you've been using various treatments without seeing improvement, it may be time to explore more integrated approaches, such as a detailed scalp analysis and a review of your hair care routine and diet, tailored to any specific medical findings. A more personalized treatment plan that addresses all potential factors, including those you suspected like thyroid issues or dermatological conditions, could provide you with better results.

You probably aren’t eating enough protein. Eat a high protein diet and your hair should regrow after 3 months. Meat is the best source of protein by far.
In the last three years I have had inflammatory scalp. I have been take dandelion tea and D3 +k. I definitely see a difference. I no longer have a sore scalp however my hair is still thinning. I know I have IBS , and Ovarian Cyst. I am 23 let me know what else should I be doing.
Are you telling me that when you run your fingers through your hair, the normal is two?! Most women I know and myself get a good grasp of hair when we do that, is hair loss that common?
Omg I really Really hope I finally found the answers! Its been 10 years! And i been spending all my money on my hair 😭 nothing. I will need to send a blood work in to check all of those
Quick question, I had cancer and did chemo when I was 27. Hair fell out and came back thick again but I would say in the last 4 years my hair is just falling out and I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and the Dr cant fix my meds to know dose I need it is all over the place. But lately my hair is coming out in clumps I really just want some real direction or help
Saying I won’t recover all of it broke my heart. Haha. I used to have very thick hair. It’s been slowly thinning for about 6-7 years in my 20s. I’ve always lost a lot of hair and never thought much until now that it’s drastically thinner and visible near the temples. I have a feeling it’s due to anemia. I’ve been low in iron on and off for years and have never realized how important it is to keep up on it. I will get blood work to confirm. . Just curious if I were low in iron, how long can it take for hair to regrow? . Also since this has been going on for years, is it possible to regrow a lot of hair or did I wait way too long? I’m filled with anxiety and depression about this.
I'm going through somewhere very similar, the truth is we dont know if we can recover it or not, but in my opinion, that's no reason not too try, you can recover the hair follicles that are still alive but just thin (the ones that are dead you can't, but we dont know which one are alive or dead), that's what I am doing currently, progress is slow but my overal health is better, so dont give up, there is hope, and even if you dont recover much, you'll be happy knowing you tried. Good luck on your journey.
I have been using Oral finasteride and Minoxidill (oral and topical) on a daily basis.. I have seen a significant change and thickening.. BUT ON ENTERING TO MY 7th month, I noticed that there is no change nor thickening of hair.. It looks to me that it stops and that it is now showing regression and my patter bald shows again.. 😢😢
Hi, I wonder why one side of my hair has lost more hair and that part is more oily. All my life my hair has been more on the dry side. I used to wash and condition my whole head, but now I wash as recommended. Thank you for your advice on this William. 🎉
This is an inflammatory hair loss and may be linked to an underlying seborrheic issue. Make sure all your nutrient levels are correct and you definitely want to wash your hair on a daily basis and probably use something like the Foligrowth follicular performance serum in the areas of hair loss.
@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist It's not breaking out any more or falling. I have been washing more often, which seems to be helping with the oil. Maybe it's healing now. 😇
You mention getting off medications. I am on oral minoxidil and have been on it for right about 6 months. I have experienced much worse seborrheic dermatitis and inflammation on my scalp since starting the treatment. However now I am scared of coming off the meds because of minoxidil dependent hair and getting a huge shed. Any tips?
I've dandruff since along time ago , I've even used ketokenazole 2% but still have patches on my sculp and my hair is falling and even hair thinning has occurred, how can i treat it please suggest a possible treatment
What blood type diet shall i consider as I've O negative blood group, plus I'll start working on getting sunlight for vitamin D3 , and is there any need for blood test
My trichologist recommended me Omega 3`s, thoughts on that? Also can I use Salicylic Acid topical on my scalp to prevent clogged pores/sebaceus filaments from forming? (my hair gets oily in 2 days)
I have purchased your Foligrowth, DHT blockers, Derma Iron and vitamin D3 --and I do really well for a bit then all of a sudden a but of shedding starts so now I will be purchasing Nutra M since I have not treated my hair loss topically......My question would be would you suggest to start with Nutra M instead of Rogaine. WHAT IS THE DIFFERNCE BETWEEN ROGAINE AND NUTRA M? Hope to hear back
You missed blood type AB 😊 I know it is the rarest type but some of us actually have it. Would be great if you could do a video on the blood type diets.🙏🏻 Thanks for all your hard work in providing us with these informative videos!
Firstly thanks for giving the top notch information about hair loss and how to control it.. Can gou please make a video upon redensyl and how it works differently than minoxidil and your suggestion whether we can use both redensyl and minoxidil if thats more effective to stop hair loss and improve hair growth.
Well i have african hair and i can't shampo it every 3 days cuz it's hard to manage it and it takes a lot of time. Is there any other way? Or is it recommended to wash with box braids on?
How can one determine the extent of baldness without a family history of balding on either side of family? I started thinning at the same time I started experiencing celiacs symptoms. I'm now 100 percent gluten free, however, still thinning. Ironically, I see no hair at all in drain after shower and I'm wondering why the thinning continues-even with properties, Rogaine and micro needling. Thank you in advance.
That's a great question... if you have more loss on the top of your head than you do on the sides then it's probably genetically related. And though you have the celiacs under control, you may have lost hair in a zone related to dht and the inflammation from the celiacs caused the zone in the dht area to miniaturize faster than it should have. Which means you actually have to treat that zone with DHT blockers and reduce overall inflammatory effects. Also have some nutritional deficiencies caused by the celiacs and plausibly leaky gut that needs to be corrected.
Im a 35yr old woman from South Africa. I'm not on any treatment. I have hair loss at the back of my head and at the top of my head, it's very very itchy. Please help, this is depressing me What can I use treat this please. My blood type is O
hey doctor,, regarding to the last tip you mentioned.. it is normal to lose hair 50-100 daily! so i think one or 2 hairs when you run your hand through your hair is normal isn't it?
Hlo doctor... My age is 16 and i am suffering hair loss since last year .... My hair is gradually shedding from my fore head and now it i have lost much of my hair ..... Though my hair loss is genetic hair loss ... Can you suggest any tips so that i can prevent my hair loss till i reach my 40's or even 30's
Thank you for your kind words! 😊 I’m glad you found the info helpful. With scalp **psoriasis**, the inflammation and scaling can definitely lead to hair loss if not managed carefully. The good news is that there are steps you can take to help control the psoriasis and protect your hair! Here are a few tips: 1. **Gentle Scalp Care**: Use a medicated shampoo with **salicylic acid**, **coal tar**, or **ketoconazole** to help control scaling and inflammation. Avoid harsh scratching or over-washing, as it can worsen hair loss. 2. **Moisturize**: Keep your scalp hydrated with soothing treatments like **coconut oil**, **aloe vera**, or even prescription treatments to calm the irritation. 3. **Topical Treatments**: Consider using **topical steroids** or other psoriasis treatments to control flare-ups. This will reduce inflammation and help minimize the impact on hair follicles. 4. **Stress Management**: Since stress can trigger psoriasis and worsen hair loss, make sure to incorporate relaxation techniques like **yoga**, **meditation**, or **deep breathing** to reduce stress levels. Getting psoriasis under control is the first step toward preventing further hair loss. If the shedding continues despite treatment, consider seeing a trichologist for more targeted help. ➡️ Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/ for more tailored solutions for scalp psoriasis and hair loss!
Hi, I like your videos. However, all the research I find in regards to eating for your blood type seems to debunk it. Is there research you can point to supporting this beyond anecdotes in your practice?
I get this a lot. I understand why people would try to validate it. I also thought it was nonsense back in the day. The problem was that I started following blood type accidentally back in 2008 and 2009. At the time I was recommending a vegetarian diet for everyone. Make a long story short, I had a group of about thirty non responsive clients which turned out to be about 80% O blood types. I personally working with these individuals and was noticing gut and dietary disruptions in this group. I then was made aware that the Southwest Naturopathic College in Arizona was recommending the Eat Right for the blood type diet as an anti-inflammatory diet and they were calling out the fact that every individual response differently to diets based upon their blood type which made perfect sense to me and was validated by various test groups within my clinics. I then went ahead and put this into practice and after about nine to twelve months it was completely validated as the best diet for hair growth in my observation. Obviously it's been about 15 years since then and I have continually seen it proven to me over and over and over in a clinical setting that it makes all the difference in the world for people who are dealing with inflammation.
I notice in your optimal blood work markers in the description, you mentioned vitamin d, ferritin, zinc, and B12. What about copper? Doesn’t copper play a major role in hair health?
Yes, copper does play a significant role in hair health, although it often receives less attention than other nutrients like vitamin D, ferritin, zinc, and B12. Here’s how copper contributes to hair health: 1. Melanin Production: Copper is crucial for the production of melanin, the pigment that gives hair its color. Adequate copper levels help maintain natural hair color, and a deficiency may lead to premature graying. 2. Collagen and Elastin Formation: Copper is involved in the synthesis of collagen and elastin, proteins that support the structure of the skin and hair. Healthy collagen production can contribute to stronger hair follicles and potentially reduce hair breakage and thinning. 3. Iron Absorption: Copper aids in the absorption and utilization of iron, another critical mineral for hair health. Without enough copper, the body might struggle to maintain adequate iron levels, leading to anemia and potential hair loss. 4. Antioxidant Defense: Copper is a component of superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme that protects cells, including hair follicles, from oxidative stress. This protection is vital in preventing hair follicle damage and supporting healthy hair growth. 5. Balancing Zinc Levels: Copper and zinc work in tandem, and it’s important to maintain a proper balance between the two. Excessive zinc intake can lead to copper deficiency, while insufficient copper can impair zinc absorption. Both minerals are essential for maintaining a healthy scalp and promoting hair growth. Copper Deficiency and Hair Health: A deficiency in copper can lead to several issues related to hair, including: Hair thinning and loss: Copper deficiency may contribute to hair thinning due to its role in collagen production and iron absorption. Premature graying: Insufficient copper can reduce melanin production, leading to early graying. Optimal Levels and Supplementation: While copper is vital, it’s important to maintain a balance and avoid excessive intake, as too much copper can be toxic. Typically, a balanced diet provides sufficient copper, but if you're concerned about your levels, it’s worth discussing with your healthcare provider who may recommend blood tests to assess your copper levels. Copper is indeed important for hair health, playing a role in pigmentation, structural integrity, and antioxidant protection. While it’s not as frequently highlighted as other markers, it’s an essential component of a comprehensive approach to maintaining healthy hair. ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/

There is a genetic test that will tell you whether you have the pattern hair loss gene. I dont know which one that is or where to find it. But I don't think it matters much because at the end of the day if you start losing hair on the top of the head the vast majority of the time it's due to genetics
Good afternoon Doctor! My question is when first starting to massage the scalp in the way you indicate in several of your videos, is it normal to see a (slightly) increased shedding for a short period of time? I am thinking that maybe the manipulation of the scalp might bring out some hairs that were already in the telegen phase and would have soon dropped out anyway. And thank you for this very helpful video...I know the one area I need to get more disciplined with is sleep 😴 💤!
Yes a minor increase is fine. Frankly I think it's near impossible for shedding to occur due to this type of scalp massage. Just keep an eye on it. Shedding continues to increase its most likely not because of the massage but from some other reason.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologistThank you so much Doctor! Yes, I apologize that I wasn't very clear.....I was referring to just a very small, occasional increase in shed hairs after the massage. Thank you so much for your time. Have a great day! 👍
Hi , I have genetic hair loss since I was teenager and it increased since I have been a mom now am 40 years I stopped menoxidil 2% , which became not so effective lately , I changed my habits now am planning to get natural hair oils such as rosemary and other beneficial oils in the same time saw palmetto and pumpkinseeds, my cuastion is that : may I use minoxidil 10% daily? ??
I never saw you talking about receding hairline doctor what type of hair lose is it? my hair is pretty thick from the top and there's no hair loss when I did your test but I feel like one side of my hairline is receding just a little bit idk if its normal... so how can i maintain my hairline?
A receding hairline can be concerning, especially if you're noticing changes but don't see widespread hair loss. From our video "MASTERING HAIR LOSS PREVENTION: SIX DAILY HABITS UNVEILED," we discuss proactive measures for hair retention, including addressing genetic predispositions with a DHT blocker, ensuring optimal nutrient levels, and following a diet tailored to your blood type. These strategies are essential in maintaining hair health overall. However, for specific concerns like a mildly receding hairline, ensuring you're following a balanced diet, avoiding stress, and possibly considering targeted treatments like minoxidil can help maintain your hairline. It's also crucial to evaluate your hair care practices to avoid any mechanical stress on the hair. For personalized advice tailored to your unique situation, consulting with a trichologist or dermatologist is recommended. They can provide targeted recommendations based on a thorough assessment of your hair and scalp health. Melissa Fox (customer service) ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/
Hello Sir.. I get so many bumps and eruptions on my scalp on regular basis.Also i suffer from extreme hairfall as i get lot of itching on scalp due to patches of dandruff which form scabs and also cause burning sensation and due to all this my hair roots are very weak and tend to fall all the time and then i lose hair in clusters.Plz help sir as none is able to treat my condition and i am in lot of pain due to this.
Dealing with bumps, eruptions, and severe dandruff leading to hair fall can be distressing. While our video "MASTERING HAIR LOSS PREVENTION: SIX DAILY HABITS UNVEILED" focuses on habits to prevent hair loss, your situation seems to require a more specific approach, particularly due to the presence of scalp conditions that are causing discomfort and hair loss. Scalp health is fundamental to hair health, as emphasized in the video. Maintaining a clean scalp, ensuring proper nutrition, and managing stress are key components. However, in cases of severe dandruff, scabs, and eruptions, these issues could be symptomatic of underlying conditions such as dermatitis, psoriasis, or fungal infections, which require targeted treatment. Here are a few steps you can consider: Scalp Hygiene: Washing your hair regularly with a mild, sulfate-free shampoo can help manage dandruff and prevent build-up, which might be exacerbating your condition. Nutrition: As discussed, ensuring you're getting key nutrients is crucial for hair health. Consider supplements only after consulting with a healthcare provider. Consult a Specialist: Given the severity of your symptoms, consulting a dermatologist or a trichologist is crucial. They can provide a diagnosis and tailor a treatment plan to your specific condition, which might include medicated shampoos, topical treatments, or oral medication to address the inflammation, itching, and hair loss. Avoid Self-Treatment: While it's tempting to try over-the-counter solutions or home remedies, without a clear diagnosis, these might aggravate your scalp's condition. Stress Management: Stress can exacerbate scalp issues and hair loss. Techniques such as meditation, regular exercise, or speaking with a counselor can be beneficial. Your situation sounds complex and requires professional medical advice to address both the symptoms and the underlying causes effectively. It's important not to lose hope and to seek out a healthcare provider who understands and has experience treating similar conditions.

Hi Doc, im 19 and in the early stages of hair thinning. I am doing daily scalp massages. Also, washing hair twice a week once with ketoconazole shampoo. I have also had a blood test and everything seems normal. Do you think I should start minoxidil foam? thank you
Based on the strategies you're already implementing and considering your age and early stages of hair thinning, it's encouraging to see you're taking proactive steps in addressing hair loss. William Gaunitz, through his extensive experience, often emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive approach to hair health, which you seem to be following by incorporating scalp massages, using ketoconazole shampoo, and monitoring your health through blood tests. When considering adding minoxidil foam to your regimen, it's important to remember that minoxidil is a well-established treatment for hair thinning and loss, particularly effective in the early stages. It works by stimulating hair follicles to move from the resting phase to the growth phase, potentially increasing the thickness and amount of hair over time. However, minoxidil treatment requires consistency and commitment, as results are typically observed after several months of use, and the benefits only persist as long as the treatment continues. Given your current approach and the considerations from the video on hair loss prevention, integrating minoxidil foam could potentially enhance your results, especially if your hair loss is in the early stages. It's crucial, however, to be aware of minoxidil's potential side effects, such as scalp irritation or unwanted hair growth in areas near application. Consulting with a healthcare professional or a specialized trichologist like William Gaunitz can provide you with personalized advice, ensuring that adding minoxidil to your regimen is a well-informed decision tailored to your specific condition and needs. Remember, maintaining a holistic approach that includes proper nutrition, scalp care, and stress management will complement any topical treatments you decide to pursue.

Hey doctor I have telogen effluvium for more than 10-11months and now i am losing my leg hairs I am using vitamin d3 B complex a multi vitamin but it not stopping please help ❤❤❤
Hi doc , im 21 (female) ive been losing my hair since last year..my haemoglobin and iron levels are normal..no thyroid issues too..my dermat recommended to start minoxidil 2% ..im 1 month into it..but my hair loss has increased in the pase 3-4 months..what can i do to slow it down
I just saw a dermatologist. I showed him a photo of the amount of hair I lose after 3-5 days of no washng my hair. I have naturally greasy scalp. He examined and said that 50 to even 200 hairs a day can be normal. He said he would not be worried if he was me. Asked about my parent's hair if they suffer from balding (which they do not) and then said if I am worried he can prescribed a hair foam / mousse that is medicated. But he looked at the photo of my hair and said it is normal we all lose hair and I look normal. I feel relieved. Since I was a teen I always shredded the same amount in the shower which seem like a lot. I thought I was losing more but he is a doctor with experience and looked at my scalp pulled on it a little and looked at my photo of my shredded hair from my shower. I am also seeing a endocrinologist who gave me 7 blood tests hormones and full blood counts. She can also examine and prescribe supplements to prevent a problem. He said pumpkin seed oil is ok with him if I feel it is good but he said if there was a problem he would prewcribe to me a hair foam which is medicated and works.
Male pattern hair loss, commonly influenced by genetics, can be challenging to address, but there are effective strategies to manage and potentially improve your condition. Based on the comprehensive approach to hair health outlined in the video, focusing on prevention and treatment of hair loss, including dietary adjustments and proper scalp care, can be beneficial. For male pattern hair loss specifically, it's crucial to manage DHT levels, as DHT is a key factor in genetic hair loss. Products containing DHT blockers, such as saw palmetto, stinging nettle, and pumpkin seed, may help. Additionally, maintaining optimal levels of key nutrients through diet or supplementation-vitamin D, zinc, biotin, iron, and vitamin B12-supports hair health. Regular scalp care, including gentle washing with suitable shampoos to maintain scalp health without stripping natural oils, is important. Avoid over-washing, as it can lead to dryness and irritation, potentially exacerbating hair loss. Lastly, consider professional consultation. A trichologist or dermatologist can offer personalized advice and treatment options, including prescription medications like finasteride or minoxidil, which have been proven effective for many individuals facing male pattern baldness. Remember, the sooner you address the issue, the better your chances of minimizing hair loss and promoting regrowth. Melissa Fox (Customer Service) ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/
Obviously you need to get the right blood tests and you need to know what you're looking for. The most expensive blood test panel that we recommend is the Zone 3 Advanced Trichology blood panel. You can Google it for what's on the panel
Can I use castor oil for increasing hair density will it be helpful sir ? Can I use a shampoo with ingredient such as Amla , bringraj , reetha , curry leaves , flaxseeds Will it be helpful for me my age is 20 years I don't have any genetic problem of hairloss
Using natural remedies like castor oil and shampoos with ingredients such as amla, bhringraj, reetha, curry leaves, and flaxseeds can be beneficial for hair health, particularly if you're looking to increase hair density and maintain strong, healthy hair. Here’s how each of these can help: 1. Castor Oil for Hair Density How It Helps: Castor oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, which has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It is also high in omega-9 fatty acids, which can nourish the scalp and strengthen the hair roots, potentially promoting thicker hair. Usage Tips: Apply castor oil to your scalp and massage it in gently. Leave it on for a few hours or overnight before washing it out with a mild shampoo. Doing this 1-2 times a week can help improve hair density and shine over time. 2. Shampoo Ingredients Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Amla is known for its high vitamin C content, which can help strengthen hair follicles, prevent premature graying, and improve scalp health. Bhringraj: Often called the “King of Herbs” for hair care, bhringraj is traditionally used to promote hair growth, reduce dandruff, and prevent hair fall. Reetha (Soapnut): Reetha is a natural cleanser that gently cleans the scalp without stripping away natural oils, helping to maintain a healthy scalp environment. Curry Leaves: These are rich in antioxidants and proteins, which can help reduce hair thinning and promote healthy hair growth. Flaxseeds: Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which nourish the hair and scalp, potentially reducing hair loss and improving hair elasticity. 3. Benefits for You at Age 20 Since you don't have any genetic hair loss issues, using these natural ingredients can be an excellent way to maintain your hair’s health and possibly increase its density. These ingredients are generally safe and can help nourish your hair and scalp, prevent hair thinning, and support overall hair growth. 4. Additional Tips Balanced Diet: Ensure you're also supporting your hair from the inside with a diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Regular Scalp Care: Along with using these products, regular scalp massages can help stimulate blood circulation, promoting healthier hair growth. Using castor oil and a shampoo with these natural ingredients can be a great addition to your hair care routine, especially since you don't have genetic hair loss concerns. Consistent use can help maintain and even improve your hair density and overall health. ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/
Given your family history of early-onset baldness and the fact that you're already noticing thinning and balding at your temples at 19, it's important to take action early. Here are some steps you can take to potentially slow down or even stop hair loss: Early Intervention: Starting treatment early is key. The sooner you address hair loss, the better your chances of maintaining your hair. Topical Minoxidil: This over-the-counter treatment can help stimulate hair growth and slow hair loss. Apply it consistently to the affected areas. Oral Finasteride: Finasteride is a prescription medication that reduces DHT levels, a hormone linked to hair loss. It can be effective in slowing or stopping hair loss in men. However, discuss with a doctor before starting, as it may have side effects. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): Devices like laser combs or caps can help stimulate hair growth and improve hair density. Lifestyle Factors: Ensure you have a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health, like biotin, zinc, and vitamin D. Managing stress through regular exercise, meditation, or other relaxation techniques is also important, as stress can exacerbate hair loss. Consult a Trichologist or Dermatologist: A specialist can offer a personalized treatment plan, which might include prescription medications, hair growth treatments, or other advanced therapies. Addressing your hair loss now gives you the best chance of preserving your hair long-term. ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/
Is there anything to help children. My child currently has a beautiful head of hair, but genetically I know we are prone to hair loss. Can I treat her hair and scalp? We are definitely taking into account nutrition, but since she is growing there is also question there around whether this is the time to, for example, cut out chicken.
It’s wonderful that you’re thinking proactively about your child’s hair health! 🌱 While many treatments for hair loss aren’t suitable for children, there are gentle, supportive practices you can put in place to promote a healthy scalp and hair for her as she grows. ### Here’s a Child-Friendly Approach to Scalp and Hair Care: 1. **Focus on a Nutrient-Rich Diet** 🥦🍓: - **Protein** is essential, and since hair is primarily made of keratin (a protein), keeping balanced protein sources in her diet is important. If you're thinking of cutting out chicken, consider other protein sources like eggs, beans, lentils, and tofu. - **Iron, Zinc, and Biotin**: Foods rich in these nutrients support hair growth and strength. Look for leafy greens, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and a variety of fruits and veggies. 2. **Scalp Care** 🧴: - Keep her scalp clean and moisturized with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo. - Occasionally, a mild, natural oil (like coconut or jojoba) can be massaged into her scalp to improve circulation and keep the skin hydrated. 3. **Gentle Handling** 🧘♀️: - Minimize hair breakage by using a wide-tooth comb, and avoid pulling or tight hairstyles that could strain the hair follicles. - If her hair is prone to tangling, a leave-in conditioner or a detangler spray can help reduce tugging. 4. **Sun Protection** ☀️: - Children’s scalps are sensitive, so using hats or scarves to protect her scalp from harsh sun exposure is helpful. ### Early Healthy Habits While genetic predisposition plays a role, starting healthy habits early can help maintain a strong foundation for her hair. She’s still young, so avoid any strong treatments and instead focus on gentle, natural practices. Keeping these routines as part of her growing-up years can make a difference! 🌟 ➡️ For more personalized tips, feel free to reach out at [www.advancedtrichology.com/](www.advancedtrichology.com/)
Hi sir, Is it normal to get scalp oily 3 days after washing hair? If not, my scalp is becoming oily Does this cause hair loss? If yes , then what to do sir?
That is normal for somebody who genetically has a higher level of DHT converting on the scalp . You need to wash your hair daily or, at the very least, every two days because this is an indication that you will most likely be suffering from a male pattern or female pattern loss soon. Here is a video on that exact topic ua-cam.com/video/o8OzWCDJP_M/v-deo.html
Been researching hair loss prevention and regrowth methods for years, but this the first time I heard about eating for your blood type. I’m AB+ so does that mean I have to be a pescatarian??? 😭
I was on the phone with your staff yesterday, and I'm going to run the Zone 3 blood test and send the results to you'll so you'll can put me at my Optimum levels. I'm taking all of your supplements as of now as well. I have a really bad scalp itch all over my head, and I'm losing hair all over. Any more suggestions of what I can do?
Could you please recommend some natural DHT blockers that are easily accessible in India, something that could be included in the diet itself ? Also, does biotin help in hair loss, I am a non vegetarian and eat chicken, fish etc regularly.
There are several natural DHT blockers you can include in your diet that are easily accessible in India. Here are some great options: 🌿 **Saw Palmetto**: Though not native to India, it’s available in supplement form at health stores and online. It’s one of the most researched natural DHT blockers. 🍵 **Green Tea**: Rich in EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate), green tea can inhibit DHT production and reduce hair loss. Drinking a cup daily is a simple and effective way to include it in your routine. 🌰 **Pumpkin Seeds**: These are rich in zinc, which helps regulate hormones like DHT. You can snack on pumpkin seeds or include them in your meals as they’re easily found in Indian markets. 🥥 **Coconut Oil**: Though not a food you eat directly in large amounts, coconut oil is rich in lauric acid, which may help block DHT when applied to the scalp or consumed in moderation. 🥬 **Spinach & Kale**: These are loaded with magnesium and iron, both important for healthy hair growth and may have a role in balancing hormones related to hair loss. 🍛 **Turmeric**: This common Indian spice contains curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory properties and may help block DHT. It can be easily added to your daily meals. As for **biotin**, it’s great for hair health but more for strengthening hair and improving texture rather than directly addressing hair loss. Since you're a non-vegetarian and consume chicken and fish regularly, you’re likely getting enough biotin from your diet. Biotin deficiencies are rare in non-vegetarians. While biotin helps with hair strength, it’s not a DHT blocker, so it won’t directly prevent hair loss caused by androgenetic alopecia. But supplementing with biotin if you notice brittle hair or nails could be helpful. ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/

Hello sir i have used ur derma iron for 3 months still my ferritin is 52 before iron supplements i had 44 what is the problem behind this,other wise my b12,vit d r in super optimal range after taking ur supplement
It sounds like you've been diligently following our advice and taking the Derma Iron supplement, but you're not seeing the expected increase in your ferritin levels. While an increase from 44 to 52 does show some improvement, it's understandable that you were hoping for more significant results. Ferritin levels can be influenced by various factors, including absorption issues, diet, overall health, and the presence of chronic diseases. It's also important to ensure you're taking the supplement as recommended, possibly with vitamin C to enhance iron absorption. Considering your B12 and vitamin D levels are in a super optimal range, which is great, it might be beneficial to revisit your overall health and diet to ensure there are no other underlying factors that could be affecting your ferritin levels. Sometimes, even with supplements, it takes a bit longer for ferritin levels to increase significantly, especially if your body is adjusting or if there are other health issues at play. We recommend consulting with a trichologist to discuss your current regimen, including the Derma Iron supplement, to evaluate if any adjustments are needed or if further investigation is warranted to identify any underlying issues that might be impacting your ferritin levels. They might suggest additional tests or adjustments to your diet or supplement regimen to help improve your ferritin levels more effectively. Keep up the great work with your health and remember, sometimes these things take a little time and adjustment to find the right balance for your body.

What’s your advice for BDNF-related hair loss? BDNF and DHT both increase DKK1 expression, and magnesium l-threonate inhibits DKK1 expression, but only shown in vitro.
Just like many things in vitro vs in vivo, the real world application inside the human body doesn't necessarily apply when it has to go through normal biological human processes. It is very interesting but until a substance actually changes that expression inside the body then it really doesn't matter.
No as long as you have proper blood levels of nutrients as I recommended in the video then you are good. I would Go ahead and get those tested though since you see a direct correlation with your diet.
I’m a 27 year old female and I have inflammation hair loss all over my body (my scalp, private pubic area, eyebrows and legs) what could this mean? The areas are red, flaky, along with the hair loss.
That sounds like seborrheic dermatitis. You're experiencing is pretty common in that regard and it's also related to levels of yeast in your bloodstream and an out of balance got microbiome. I would highly recommend getting your vitamin D3 up and making sure your nutrient levels are good because that will help control the immune response correctly. Meantime you can start consuming caprylic acid, and vitamin D3, and minimizing sugar and saturated fats
Thanks. I have been taking vitamins for two months now and trying to change my diet but I haven’t seen any improvement yet, just more hair loss. Will the inflammation eventually go down in my body and I can regain new hair growth? I’m worried if this is permanent hair loss since inflammation isn’t going and it’s been two months.
Supplements can help block DHT and support hair regrowth, but their effectiveness can vary depending on the individual and the specific supplement. Ingredients like saw palmetto, biotin, zinc, and certain vitamins have been shown to help reduce DHT levels and promote hair health. However, supplements often work best when combined with other treatments like topical solutions or medications. It's essential to choose high-quality supplements and consult with a healthcare professional to determine the right approach for your hair loss. ➡️Reach out to us at www.advancedtrichology.com/
Hey doctor, i am suffering from excessive hair loss, due to excessive production of sebum on my scalp due to which its forming a wax like substance on my scalp blocking the follicles to grow, i consulted a dermatologist, and she's like its due to high testosterone levels or harmonal changes, i am having excessive sebum production and gave me oral minoxidil of 2.5mg and finasteride but my hair fall isn't stopping.. Could you please suggest me something to stop excessive sebum production and hair loss
The oral minoxidil will do nothing for the sebum production. You Need to get your vitamin D3 to 70 ng/mL, use a topical like the Foli growth performance serum to suppress sebaceous production with Azeliac acid topically, and use a natural internal DHD blocker like the DHT blocker with immune support by Advanced Trichology o

I have a video explaining this coming out soon. It's because you did not block the underlying reason for the hair loss. You need to look at DHT, nutrition, and inflammation.
I have the advanced trichology DHD blockers coming in the mail and will begin taking them. I'm suffering from the early stages of male pattern baldness due to DHD. I notice you also have foligrowth supplement. In what scenario would someone need to take that instead of DHD blocker, or are these supposed to be used in combination? Right now I'm looking to just stop the hairloss/progression of my male pattern baldness
Hair loss on the sides or related to nutrition would be something to be looking at if you're D3, zinc, or ferritin is lower or compromised. DHT related losses on the top of the scalp but you may have both going on.
Well I can only give you general thoughts because I don't know your specific details but to control save in production you need to decrease DHT. Do this with a natural dht blocker like the one in the video or finasteride. Also consider using a topical dht suppressant like the NutraM topical scalp serum. You need to be washing your hair daily correctly like the video that I have on the topic as well as minimize sugar and saturated fat.
Normal does not mean optimal for your hair. Plus there are 1000 and eight different blood tests and you need to make sure you're testing for the right thing

What should optimal folate be?
I've struggled since I was 15 with hair loss. I would go to doctors telling them I was so tired all the time and they'd tell me it was anxiety. When I turned 25, I was literally dying. Couldn't get out of bed really. All my hair fell out. Went to 35 doctors in 2 years. One doctor finally tested my ferritin and d3 and it was bottom low. Found out I was bleeding out every month with heavy periods that I inherited from my grandma. Here, I was gaslighted that these periods were normal. I demanded iron shots because after a year of iron pills it only went up to 48 from 10 and I was in misery. Iron pills are slooow because of hepcidin. D3 pills worked faster. I took d3 with magnesium. I got ferritin and d3 and magnesium up to optimal levels. Most of my hair came back. I've been taking zinc to get my blood level up from 76 to 90. I'm still loosing little spots of hair on sides and top of head that are painful. I bought a 5 hair strand test that said I was low in folate, b3, omega 3, vitamin a and vitamin k. Most of these doctors are so dismissive of nutrient levels. They see they are in "range" but they are based off the general population who are mostly deficient. The ranges aren't accurate from regular doctors. Why dont they update them? What level of folate is optimal? I've been reading studies at I found 25.5 kept popping up. Is that right? You are awesome. You have condensed everything I've learned in the last 5 years into 1 video.
Ranges are developed by blood testing establishments as a bulk normal range for all humans in the typical test group. Can range from country to country and from lab to lab. The general rule is that you need to be in the middle of the range. Folate approximately 9 to 12 nanograms per milliliter would be ideal
No . Your the one that's awesome. 💯 keep ok reading and doing your due diligence to be the best you can be🙏🏾
Thank you for the video. So, is microneedling not recommended?
You’re welcome! 😊 Microneedling can actually be an excellent tool for hair growth when done correctly, but it’s important to understand when and how to use it. Here’s a breakdown:
---
### **Is Microneedling Recommended?**
**Yes, microneedling is recommended** in many cases, especially for hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). However, it needs to be done properly to avoid potential side effects.
---
### **How Microneedling Helps with Hair Growth**:
1. **Improves Absorption**: It enhances the absorption of topical treatments like minoxidil or growth serums.
2. **Stimulates Follicles**: The tiny injuries from microneedling boost blood flow and trigger the release of growth factors that promote hair growth.
3. **Collagen Production**: Supports healthier, stronger scalp skin, which is crucial for hair follicles.
---
### **When Microneedling May Not Be Recommended**:
1. **Active Scalp Conditions**: Avoid microneedling if you have active infections, severe dandruff, or scalp inflammation (e.g., psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis).
2. **Improper Tools or Technique**: Using needles that are too deep or applying too much pressure can damage the scalp. Always stick to recommended lengths (e.g., **0.5-1.5 mm** for hair loss).
3. **Overdoing It**: Microneedling too frequently can cause irritation and hinder healing. A good schedule is once every **7-14 days**.
---
### **Pro Tips for Safe and Effective Microneedling**:
- **Clean Tools and Scalp**: Always disinfect the derma roller/pen and ensure your scalp is clean before starting.
- **Pair with Topicals**: Use products like **minoxidil**, **platelet-rich plasma (PRP)**, or growth serums after microneedling to enhance their effects (but only if your scalp tolerates it).
- **Be Gentle**: Avoid heavy pressure. Let the tool glide across the scalp.
- **Patience Pays**: Results typically appear after a few months of consistent use.
---
### **Bottom Line**:
Microneedling can be a powerful addition to your hair loss routine if done carefully. It’s definitely worth considering, but consult a dermatologist or trichologist first if you’re unsure about your scalp’s condition.

So, I live in the UK and find these videos extremely useful. The UK has been a stressful country to live in for a while now, for various reasons including BREXIT, the pandemic, unstable governments and the economy. Stress in my view is a big factor in hair loss. I will be exploring the ideas offered as I am 61 now and have started losing the hair to the top of my head over the last 6 months. I am sure it is a combination of a stressful country, job and lifestyle/mindset. Poor sleep through stress, poor diet choices and statins, that I have stopped taking. I knew nothing about eating for blood groups, so will explore that and the rest I will act on now. Getting bloods in the UK is not easy with the NHS not likely to help. I will explore this too. I have given up alcohol, I drink more water, avoid heat to my scalp, wash my hair with organic phosphate free shampoo and a ‘grow me’ type too. I have lived a high stress life for as long as I can remember, so I have ‘stopped my world and got off’ for as long as it takes. If the hair goes so be it, it’s rather the journey of self discovery that I am on that I’m hoping will help me in the long run. I’ve stopped worrying about the hair loss, which seems to be helping my state of mind more. I am practicing the art of saying no more, which again helps. Many thanks for sharing the knowledge you do, it’s an amazing thing you do.
Thank you for sharing your journey-your approach is inspiring and insightful! 🌟 It’s clear you’re addressing hair loss holistically, and you’re absolutely right: stress can be a major factor. Chronic stress not only impacts our mental health but can also lead to hair thinning by disrupting hair cycles, weakening follicles, and even influencing diet and sleep choices, as you’ve noted.
You’re already implementing excellent strategies, like drinking more water, avoiding heat, choosing gentle shampoos, and focusing on nutrition. Tackling stress by taking breaks, practicing mindfulness, and saying “no” when needed are all powerful steps, too. Hair loss can feel overwhelming, but your decision to focus on self-discovery and prioritize inner peace will positively impact not only your hair but your overall well-being.
For blood testing, if the NHS access remains limited, private options are available in the UK, offering comprehensive blood panels (including nutrient levels and hormone balance) which might give you more insight.
Above all, your mindset is your greatest ally. Learning to accept the process and focusing on health, self-care, and inner peace can be transformative. 🌱 Keep exploring, and thank you for reminding us of the importance of self-discovery and resilience.
➡️ Reach out to us at [www.advancedtrichology.com/](www.advancedtrichology.com/) if you ever need more insights along the way.
You can easily obtain private blood tests in the UK if you have the money.
I learnt that when I was severely vitamin D deficient. I was told I had to pay privately and find a private provider to do it myself every year as the NHS won't as it costs them too much.
Also doctors are only concerned about you being ill rather than you reaching optimal levels. So while they use the same labs the ranges are smaller on some private tests.
I’ve been trying to regrow my hair for months . Listening to everything you say but in the last few weeks my hair loss has progressed to the point where I’m not even sure it’s worth keeping anymore . My whole top of my head is bald but I’m still trying to hold on . I’m extremely disappointed as I trusted you but yet nothing has changed . Infact getting worse
Edit: 2 months later and by not giving up and trusting the process I’ve been able to save my hair and started regrowing lost hair
Ok, I am sorry to hear that. But obviously, I know nothing about your individual situation. Have you gotten any blood tests? Are you on medication? How old are you? What have you done so far? Etc.. I wish it was as easy as watching a couple UA-cam videos and figuring it out but you may need some individual attention.
Most people are suffering due to inflammatory issues…. Your gut and intestines should be properly cleanse… Use herbs such as cascara sagrada and senna leaf… next cleanse your liver and kidneys with herbs such as dandelion, burdock root, and milk thistle… next you have capillaries which are micro vessels that send oxygen to the scalp, your blood needs proper flowing and nitric oxide and beets would help with that. Take a liquid saw palmetto capsule of at least 400mg EVERYDAY, you should see results, I hope that helps you.
there is literally a disclaimer at the beginning of this video. every body is different you should know that by now. if it's a serious issue go consult YOUR doctor as they know more about your health than he does
Dude. Do not listen to this guy. He’s telling you nonsense about nutrition because he SELLS SUPPLEMENTS. There are only two FDA approved treatments for AGA: Finasteride and Minoxidil. Follow the hard data when looking for medical intervention. Finasteride (and dutasteride) will stop the progression of AGA by inhibiting 5AR, and minoxidil will stimulate regrowth of lost hair. If you’re a non-responder to minoxidil then you just need to boost your scalp SULT1A1 levels with by combining it with Tretinoin. Everything else people are trying to sell you are snake oils.
You need to do micro needling and scalp massages
I do notice when i eat less sugar for a week my hair become more healthy, darker, more flexible, keep their shape.
High insulin will destroy your hair and more importantly skin on top of head
Excellent info and channel! Thanks
Using a derma roller on the scalp is a great way to encourage new hair growth.
You are the best doctor. Love your videos❤❤❤❤
Great video Doctor! I apply some of these methods myself, plus the scalp massaging techinque you have mentioned in your other videos. One question: Is shedding between 40-60 hairs a day considered normal? (I read that losing up to 100 is normal, however, I do want know if that is true)
Hi doctor! Great video and very informative but I have one question:
I’ve been noticing my follicles hardening,the content inside becomes like a blackhead but on the scalp,what could be the cause of that? I do have seborrheic dermatitis and androgenetic alopecia. I’ve tried many different types of shampoo and none has a significant effect,but your video opened my eyes that my diet could probably be the source of all the inflammation on my scalp.
Definitely go ahead and get a biopsy. That sounds like Lichen planopilaris or something abnormal may be going on.
I'm taking finestride tablets from last year June....... watching from India
did they help?
What if I am thinning and receding and have some natural hairloss shampoo, but use your serum do u think that will boost my chances or regrowing?
I have O blood type. Please do a video on blood type diet in detail and 🙏
Of course!
Hey Doc! I really think you should conduct research to find the true reason for genetic hair loss given your passion❤. Would be epic if you find some loophole or something
I have Male pattern baldness. I can only wash my hair once a week max. (Sometimes I do an ACV rince in between) I use other interventions but if I wash my hair any more than that no matter what shampoo I use my scalp flares up and my hair stops growing and thins more. This is my situation. Obviously different for everyone but there is no one size fits all treatment for hairloss. Whether it’s DHT related/inflammatory or nutritional
That's right there is no one size fits all but I guarantee you if you manage the internal inflammation your scalp sensitivity would go away.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist always appreciate your videos. Saw palmetto seems to irritate my gut. Do you have any other recommendations for an oral DHT reducer?
Hair loss started at age after I started taking tretion tablets and antibiotics for pimples, currently 33, hair fall never stopped, things went out of hands after delivery 4 years ago, tried allopathy, homeopathy, multivitamins, hair growth serums, no permanent effect, now back to square one after stopping all treatment
Thinking of blood work to get to know the root cause..Advice doc
I had a question, you talked about shampooing hair daily(i have thinning hair) and you talked about shampooing 2 cycles in one shower.
Now as i am shampooing daily should i do it twice?
Honestly, I have just about given up. There’s so many supplements that I cannot take because of my esophagus & stomach issues. Genetics is a player in my hair loss.
Have you tried the dht blocker with immune support? The genetics is very straightforward and easy to deal with. Worst case , you could use Finasteride Internally or topically. You're having so many stomach issues plays right into the core problem with inflammation and gut issues that actually make the dht issue substantially worse and create nutritional problems where they did not exist originally. Inflammation and the nutritional aspects of both, make the dht problem far more challenging to manage unless you have mitigated both underlying other causes. I would focus on eating correctly for your blood type, making sure you get at least 25GRAMS of prebiotic fiber in your diet every single day, and do something to manage the dht as well as get blood tests for everything I mentioned in this video.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist Thank you so much for your response. I will work on this. I have not tried the dht blocker with immune support. My ferritin is extremely low & the iron supplement made me have
an esophageal & stomach flair.
Thank you again.
@@juanitamatthews107what ended up happening with you? Did you try the DHT blocker?
@@MichaelT83310 I did but I can’t take 4 pills/day. My ferritin is up but not enough. I use a patch for the iron. My hair is still falling out. So, I’m screwed.
@@MichaelT83310 I replied but I don’t know where it went. I got the DHT blocker but I can’t take 4 pills a day. I am on an iron patch & my ferritin is up but it’s still far from optimal. All other blood work is good. My shedding continues & no regrowth. Ugh!😑
What about women over 40 goin under perimenopause??? I lost most of my hair due to perimenopause. Plz make video on this topic 😊

Hello Doctor, I'm from Morocco, I've been following my diet, oils and rosemary for 4 months, I do massage daily, and now I'm starting to feel tingling in the place of baldness, is this tingling evidence that the hair started to growPlease help me!
Answered above
I’m a 42 yo female, and have been losing hair all over my scalp diffusely and consistently, top, sides, back, everywhere. Bloodwork for hormones and vitamins was normal, thyroid normal except tpo was a little high but my dermatologist said she wasn’t concerned. I’ve had vertical ridges in my nails for a few years now, and I do have scalp itch in random spots all over my scalp everyday even right after washing. I also have dandruff. I’m using ketoconazole 2% and clobetasol and eating healthier and drinking tons of water. I’m also taking Nutrafol and a couple other supplements religiously. My hair is still falling. It’s been months and months with no end in sight. I’ve lost over half of my hair density and am more and more depressed everyday. I can’t even leave my house anymore, let alone look in a mirror. I thought it might be thyroid, or demodex, or diffuse alopecia areata. ?
I'm truly sorry to hear about your distressing experience with hair loss. Considering the diverse symptoms you've described-diffuse hair loss, scalp itch, and nail changes-it might be beneficial to look beyond conventional diagnoses. The vertical ridges in your nails and scalp itch, combined with hair loss, could suggest a more complex underlying issue, possibly related to nutrient absorption or an inflammatory condition that hasn't been adequately addressed by standard blood tests.
William Gaunitz often discusses the importance of thorough evaluations and not overlooking subtle signs like nail changes and scalp health. Since you've been using various treatments without seeing improvement, it may be time to explore more integrated approaches, such as a detailed scalp analysis and a review of your hair care routine and diet, tailored to any specific medical findings. A more personalized treatment plan that addresses all potential factors, including those you suspected like thyroid issues or dermatological conditions, could provide you with better results.

@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist Thank you. 💛 I see my dermatologist again Monday. I will mention this to her.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologisthello
How do I determine hair loss due to nutrient absorption?
You probably aren’t eating enough protein. Eat a high protein diet and your hair should regrow after 3 months. Meat is the best source of protein by far.
In the last three years I have had inflammatory scalp. I have been take dandelion tea and D3 +k. I definitely see a difference. I no longer have a sore scalp however my hair is still thinning. I know I have IBS , and Ovarian Cyst. I am 23 let me know what else should I be doing.
Are you telling me that when you run your fingers through your hair, the normal is two?! Most women I know and myself get a good grasp of hair when we do that, is hair loss that common?
Have you tried treating inflammation and massage , massaging the right way is a plus for me, Now I steam with aloe vera and neem powder..
You are the best
Omg I really Really hope I finally found the answers! Its been 10 years! And i been spending all my money on my hair 😭 nothing. I will need to send a blood work in to check all of those
Get a transplant
@@Notyoutube_0 I actually looked into it and doctors weren’t recommending it
Quick question, I had cancer and did chemo when I was 27. Hair fell out and came back thick again but I would say in the last 4 years my hair is just falling out and I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and the Dr cant fix my meds to know dose I need it is all over the place. But lately my hair is coming out in clumps I really just want some real direction or help
Saying I won’t recover all of it broke my heart. Haha. I used to have very thick hair. It’s been slowly thinning for about 6-7 years in my 20s. I’ve always lost a lot of hair and never thought much until now that it’s drastically thinner and visible near the temples. I have a feeling it’s due to anemia. I’ve been low in iron on and off for years and have never realized how important it is to keep up on it. I will get blood work to confirm. . Just curious if I were low in iron, how long can it take for hair to regrow? . Also since this has been going on for years, is it possible to regrow a lot of hair or did I wait way too long? I’m filled with anxiety and depression about this.
I'm going through somewhere very similar, the truth is we dont know if we can recover it or not, but in my opinion, that's no reason not too try, you can recover the hair follicles that are still alive but just thin (the ones that are dead you can't, but we dont know which one are alive or dead), that's what I am doing currently, progress is slow but my overal health is better, so dont give up, there is hope, and even if you dont recover much, you'll be happy knowing you tried. Good luck on your journey.
I have been using Oral finasteride and Minoxidill (oral and topical) on a daily basis.. I have seen a significant change and thickening.. BUT ON ENTERING TO MY 7th month, I noticed that there is no change nor thickening of hair.. It looks to me that it stops and that it is now showing regression and my patter bald shows again.. 😢😢
Dnt use minoxidil, it will only augment hair fall and need consistent use of solution and it will become dependent to a person using it.
Hi, I wonder why one side of my hair has lost more hair and that part is more oily. All my life my hair has been more on the dry side. I used to wash and condition my whole head, but now I wash as recommended. Thank you for your advice on this William. 🎉
This is an inflammatory hair loss and may be linked to an underlying seborrheic issue. Make sure all your nutrient levels are correct and you definitely want to wash your hair on a daily basis and probably use something like the Foligrowth follicular performance serum in the areas of hair loss.
@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist It's not breaking out any more or falling. I have been washing more often, which seems to be helping with the oil. Maybe it's healing now. 😇
You mention getting off medications. I am on oral minoxidil and have been on it for right about 6 months. I have experienced much worse seborrheic dermatitis and inflammation on my scalp since starting the treatment. However now I am scared of coming off the meds because of minoxidil dependent hair and getting a huge shed. Any tips?
As a tricky one… Depends on how much you're on daily. You could cut your dose in half and monitor your shedding and then go from there.
Really need a video on Ab+ blood group diet 🙏🏽
Me too 😢
There is no evidence that this diet works

Firstly thanks for giving the top notch information about hair loss and how to control it..
Can gou please make a video upon redensyl and how it works differently than minoxidil and your suggestion whether we can use both redensyl and minoxidil if thats more effective to stop hair loss and improve hair growth.
Yes, you can use both and from everything that I have seen in the real world redensyl really does not do much.
Well i have african hair and i can't shampo it every 3 days cuz it's hard to manage it and it takes a lot of time. Is there any other way? Or is it recommended to wash with box braids on?
Hi Dr ,my skin doctor recmended redensyl hair growth serum for applying at night is it enough to reduce hairfall?.Please do suggest
I don't think Redensyl has any credibility
How can one determine the extent of baldness without a family history of balding on either side of family? I started thinning at the same time I started experiencing celiacs symptoms. I'm now 100 percent gluten free, however, still thinning. Ironically, I see no hair at all in drain after shower and I'm wondering why the thinning continues-even with properties, Rogaine and micro needling. Thank you in advance.
That's a great question... if you have more loss on the top of your head than you do on the sides then it's probably genetically related. And though you have the celiacs under control, you may have lost hair in a zone related to dht and the inflammation from the celiacs caused the zone in the dht area to miniaturize faster than it should have. Which means you actually have to treat that zone with DHT blockers and reduce overall inflammatory effects. Also have some nutritional deficiencies caused by the celiacs and plausibly leaky gut that needs to be corrected.
Im a 35yr old woman from South Africa. I'm not on any treatment. I have hair loss at the back of my head and at the top of my head, it's very very itchy. Please help, this is depressing me

I just found ye channel and tq for good infos. I have scalp psoriasis and i realise nw tht im beginning to lose my hair. Pls advise what to do. Tq
Thank you for your kind words! 😊 I’m glad you found the info helpful. With scalp **psoriasis**, the inflammation and scaling can definitely lead to hair loss if not managed carefully. The good news is that there are steps you can take to help control the psoriasis and protect your hair!
Here are a few tips:
1. **Gentle Scalp Care**: Use a medicated shampoo with **salicylic acid**, **coal tar**, or **ketoconazole** to help control scaling and inflammation. Avoid harsh scratching or over-washing, as it can worsen hair loss.
2. **Moisturize**: Keep your scalp hydrated with soothing treatments like **coconut oil**, **aloe vera**, or even prescription treatments to calm the irritation.
3. **Topical Treatments**: Consider using **topical steroids** or other psoriasis treatments to control flare-ups. This will reduce inflammation and help minimize the impact on hair follicles.
4. **Stress Management**: Since stress can trigger psoriasis and worsen hair loss, make sure to incorporate relaxation techniques like **yoga**, **meditation**, or **deep breathing** to reduce stress levels.
Getting psoriasis under control is the first step toward preventing further hair loss. If the shedding continues despite treatment, consider seeing a trichologist for more targeted help.

Hi, I like your videos. However, all the research I find in regards to eating for your blood type seems to debunk it. Is there research you can point to supporting this beyond anecdotes in your practice?
I get this a lot. I understand why people would try to validate it. I also thought it was nonsense back in the day. The problem was that I started following blood type accidentally back in 2008 and 2009. At the time I was recommending a vegetarian diet for everyone. Make a long story short, I had a group of about thirty non responsive clients which turned out to be about 80% O blood types. I personally working with these individuals and was noticing gut and dietary disruptions in this group. I then was made aware that the Southwest Naturopathic College in Arizona was recommending the Eat Right for the blood type diet as an anti-inflammatory diet and they were calling out the fact that every individual response differently to diets based upon their blood type which made perfect sense to me and was validated by various test groups within my clinics. I then went ahead and put this into practice and after about nine to twelve months it was completely validated as the best diet for hair growth in my observation. Obviously it's been about 15 years since then and I have continually seen it proven to me over and over and over in a clinical setting that it makes all the difference in the world for people who are dealing with inflammation.
I notice in your optimal blood work markers in the description, you mentioned vitamin d, ferritin, zinc, and B12. What about copper? Doesn’t copper play a major role in hair health?
Yes, copper does play a significant role in hair health, although it often receives less attention than other nutrients like vitamin D, ferritin, zinc, and B12. Here’s how copper contributes to hair health:
1. Melanin Production:
Copper is crucial for the production of melanin, the pigment that gives hair its color. Adequate copper levels help maintain natural hair color, and a deficiency may lead to premature graying.
2. Collagen and Elastin Formation:
Copper is involved in the synthesis of collagen and elastin, proteins that support the structure of the skin and hair. Healthy collagen production can contribute to stronger hair follicles and potentially reduce hair breakage and thinning.
3. Iron Absorption:
Copper aids in the absorption and utilization of iron, another critical mineral for hair health. Without enough copper, the body might struggle to maintain adequate iron levels, leading to anemia and potential hair loss.
4. Antioxidant Defense:
Copper is a component of superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme that protects cells, including hair follicles, from oxidative stress. This protection is vital in preventing hair follicle damage and supporting healthy hair growth.
5. Balancing Zinc Levels:
Copper and zinc work in tandem, and it’s important to maintain a proper balance between the two. Excessive zinc intake can lead to copper deficiency, while insufficient copper can impair zinc absorption. Both minerals are essential for maintaining a healthy scalp and promoting hair growth.
Copper Deficiency and Hair Health:
A deficiency in copper can lead to several issues related to hair, including:
Hair thinning and loss: Copper deficiency may contribute to hair thinning due to its role in collagen production and iron absorption.
Premature graying: Insufficient copper can reduce melanin production, leading to early graying.
Optimal Levels and Supplementation:
While copper is vital, it’s important to maintain a balance and avoid excessive intake, as too much copper can be toxic. Typically, a balanced diet provides sufficient copper, but if you're concerned about your levels, it’s worth discussing with your healthcare provider who may recommend blood tests to assess your copper levels.
Copper is indeed important for hair health, playing a role in pigmentation, structural integrity, and antioxidant protection. While it’s not as frequently highlighted as other markers, it’s an essential component of a comprehensive approach to maintaining healthy hair.

Hey doctor , i have a question : is there tests that i can check if my hair follicles sensitive to dht hormone ?
There is a genetic test that will tell you whether you have the pattern hair loss gene. I dont know which one that is or where to find it. But I don't think it matters much because at the end of the day if you start losing hair on the top of the head the vast majority of the time it's due to genetics
Do you think sulfates in shampoo are damaging to the scalp?
Good afternoon Doctor! My question is when first starting to massage the scalp in the way you indicate in several of your videos, is it normal to see a (slightly) increased shedding for a short period of time? I am thinking that maybe the manipulation of the scalp might bring out some hairs that were already in the telegen phase and would have soon dropped out anyway. And thank you for this very helpful video...I know the one area I need to get more disciplined with is sleep 😴 💤!
Yes a minor increase is fine. Frankly I think it's near impossible for shedding to occur due to this type of scalp massage. Just keep an eye on it. Shedding continues to increase its most likely not because of the massage but from some other reason.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologistThank you so much Doctor! Yes, I apologize that I wasn't very clear.....I was referring to just a very small, occasional increase in shed hairs after the massage. Thank you so much for your time. Have a great day! 👍

A receding hairline can be concerning, especially if you're noticing changes but don't see widespread hair loss. From our video "MASTERING HAIR LOSS PREVENTION: SIX DAILY HABITS UNVEILED," we discuss proactive measures for hair retention, including addressing genetic predispositions with a DHT blocker, ensuring optimal nutrient levels, and following a diet tailored to your blood type. These strategies are essential in maintaining hair health overall. However, for specific concerns like a mildly receding hairline, ensuring you're following a balanced diet, avoiding stress, and possibly considering targeted treatments like minoxidil can help maintain your hairline. It's also crucial to evaluate your hair care practices to avoid any mechanical stress on the hair. For personalized advice tailored to your unique situation, consulting with a trichologist or dermatologist is recommended. They can provide targeted recommendations based on a thorough assessment of your hair and scalp health.

@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist so you won't recommend natural dht blocker or microneedling for such cases?
Hello Sir.. I get so many bumps and eruptions on my scalp on regular basis.Also i suffer from extreme hairfall as i get lot of itching on scalp due to patches of dandruff which form scabs and also cause burning sensation and due to all this my hair roots are very weak and tend to fall all the time and then i lose hair in clusters.Plz help sir as none is able to treat my condition and i am in lot of pain due to this.
Dealing with bumps, eruptions, and severe dandruff leading to hair fall can be distressing. While our video "MASTERING HAIR LOSS PREVENTION: SIX DAILY HABITS UNVEILED" focuses on habits to prevent hair loss, your situation seems to require a more specific approach, particularly due to the presence of scalp conditions that are causing discomfort and hair loss.
Scalp health is fundamental to hair health, as emphasized in the video. Maintaining a clean scalp, ensuring proper nutrition, and managing stress are key components. However, in cases of severe dandruff, scabs, and eruptions, these issues could be symptomatic of underlying conditions such as dermatitis, psoriasis, or fungal infections, which require targeted treatment.
Here are a few steps you can consider:
Scalp Hygiene: Washing your hair regularly with a mild, sulfate-free shampoo can help manage dandruff and prevent build-up, which might be exacerbating your condition.
Nutrition: As discussed, ensuring you're getting key nutrients is crucial for hair health. Consider supplements only after consulting with a healthcare provider.
Consult a Specialist: Given the severity of your symptoms, consulting a dermatologist or a trichologist is crucial. They can provide a diagnosis and tailor a treatment plan to your specific condition, which might include medicated shampoos, topical treatments, or oral medication to address the inflammation, itching, and hair loss.
Avoid Self-Treatment: While it's tempting to try over-the-counter solutions or home remedies, without a clear diagnosis, these might aggravate your scalp's condition.
Stress Management: Stress can exacerbate scalp issues and hair loss. Techniques such as meditation, regular exercise, or speaking with a counselor can be beneficial.
Your situation sounds complex and requires professional medical advice to address both the symptoms and the underlying causes effectively. It's important not to lose hope and to seek out a healthcare provider who understands and has experience treating similar conditions.

What about if I want to keep my hair in 80s beyond !?
Hair Loss prevention is the idea of this video
Hi Doc, im 19 and in the early stages of hair thinning. I am doing daily scalp massages. Also, washing hair twice a week once with ketoconazole shampoo. I have also had a blood test and everything seems normal. Do you think I should start minoxidil foam? thank you
Based on the strategies you're already implementing and considering your age and early stages of hair thinning, it's encouraging to see you're taking proactive steps in addressing hair loss. William Gaunitz, through his extensive experience, often emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive approach to hair health, which you seem to be following by incorporating scalp massages, using ketoconazole shampoo, and monitoring your health through blood tests.
When considering adding minoxidil foam to your regimen, it's important to remember that minoxidil is a well-established treatment for hair thinning and loss, particularly effective in the early stages. It works by stimulating hair follicles to move from the resting phase to the growth phase, potentially increasing the thickness and amount of hair over time. However, minoxidil treatment requires consistency and commitment, as results are typically observed after several months of use, and the benefits only persist as long as the treatment continues.
Given your current approach and the considerations from the video on hair loss prevention, integrating minoxidil foam could potentially enhance your results, especially if your hair loss is in the early stages. It's crucial, however, to be aware of minoxidil's potential side effects, such as scalp irritation or unwanted hair growth in areas near application. Consulting with a healthcare professional or a specialized trichologist like William Gaunitz can provide you with personalized advice, ensuring that adding minoxidil to your regimen is a well-informed decision tailored to your specific condition and needs.
Remember, maintaining a holistic approach that includes proper nutrition, scalp care, and stress management will complement any topical treatments you decide to pursue.

Hi doc , im 21 (female) ive been losing my hair since last year..my haemoglobin and iron levels are normal..no thyroid issues too..my dermat recommended to start minoxidil 2% ..im 1 month into it..but my hair loss has increased in the pase 3-4 months..what can i do to slow it down
I just saw a dermatologist. I showed him a photo of the amount of hair I lose after 3-5 days of no washng my hair. I have naturally greasy scalp. He examined and said that 50 to even 200 hairs a day can be normal. He said he would not be worried if he was me. Asked about my parent's hair if they suffer from balding (which they do not) and then said if I am worried he can prescribed a hair foam / mousse that is medicated. But he looked at the photo of my hair and said it is normal we all lose hair and I look normal. I feel relieved. Since I was a teen I always shredded the same amount in the shower which seem like a lot. I thought I was losing more but he is a doctor with experience and looked at my scalp pulled on it a little and looked at my photo of my shredded hair from my shower. I am also seeing a endocrinologist who gave me 7 blood tests hormones and full blood counts. She can also examine and prescribe supplements to prevent a problem. He said pumpkin seed oil is ok with him if I feel it is good but he said if there was a problem he would prewcribe to me a hair foam which is medicated and works.
I'm from India,I have been suffering from male pattern hair loss problem,so please tell me the cure of this problem
Male pattern hair loss, commonly influenced by genetics, can be challenging to address, but there are effective strategies to manage and potentially improve your condition. Based on the comprehensive approach to hair health outlined in the video, focusing on prevention and treatment of hair loss, including dietary adjustments and proper scalp care, can be beneficial.
For male pattern hair loss specifically, it's crucial to manage DHT levels, as DHT is a key factor in genetic hair loss. Products containing DHT blockers, such as saw palmetto, stinging nettle, and pumpkin seed, may help. Additionally, maintaining optimal levels of key nutrients through diet or supplementation-vitamin D, zinc, biotin, iron, and vitamin B12-supports hair health.
Regular scalp care, including gentle washing with suitable shampoos to maintain scalp health without stripping natural oils, is important. Avoid over-washing, as it can lead to dryness and irritation, potentially exacerbating hair loss.
Lastly, consider professional consultation. A trichologist or dermatologist can offer personalized advice and treatment options, including prescription medications like finasteride or minoxidil, which have been proven effective for many individuals facing male pattern baldness.
Remember, the sooner you address the issue, the better your chances of minimizing hair loss and promoting regrowth.

Can I use castor oil for increasing hair density will it be helpful sir ?
Can I use a shampoo with ingredient such as Amla , bringraj , reetha , curry leaves , flaxseeds
Will it be helpful for me my age is 20 years I don't have any genetic problem of hairloss
Using natural remedies like castor oil and shampoos with ingredients such as amla, bhringraj, reetha, curry leaves, and flaxseeds can be beneficial for hair health, particularly if you're looking to increase hair density and maintain strong, healthy hair. Here’s how each of these can help:
1. Castor Oil for Hair Density
How It Helps: Castor oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, which has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It is also high in omega-9 fatty acids, which can nourish the scalp and strengthen the hair roots, potentially promoting thicker hair.
Usage Tips: Apply castor oil to your scalp and massage it in gently. Leave it on for a few hours or overnight before washing it out with a mild shampoo. Doing this 1-2 times a week can help improve hair density and shine over time.
2. Shampoo Ingredients
Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Amla is known for its high vitamin C content, which can help strengthen hair follicles, prevent premature graying, and improve scalp health.
Bhringraj: Often called the “King of Herbs” for hair care, bhringraj is traditionally used to promote hair growth, reduce dandruff, and prevent hair fall.
Reetha (Soapnut): Reetha is a natural cleanser that gently cleans the scalp without stripping away natural oils, helping to maintain a healthy scalp environment.
Curry Leaves: These are rich in antioxidants and proteins, which can help reduce hair thinning and promote healthy hair growth.
Flaxseeds: Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which nourish the hair and scalp, potentially reducing hair loss and improving hair elasticity.
3. Benefits for You at Age 20
Since you don't have any genetic hair loss issues, using these natural ingredients can be an excellent way to maintain your hair’s health and possibly increase its density. These ingredients are generally safe and can help nourish your hair and scalp, prevent hair thinning, and support overall hair growth.
4. Additional Tips
Balanced Diet: Ensure you're also supporting your hair from the inside with a diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins.
Regular Scalp Care: Along with using these products, regular scalp massages can help stimulate blood circulation, promoting healthier hair growth.
Using castor oil and a shampoo with these natural ingredients can be a great addition to your hair care routine, especially since you don't have genetic hair loss concerns. Consistent use can help maintain and even improve your hair density and overall health.

I dont know which kind of hair fall facing but my frint part is little visible pls suggest
i am in a family who all are bald from an early age, can i stop my balding i’m only 19 and have noticed thinning and balding on temples?
Given your family history of early-onset baldness and the fact that you're already noticing thinning and balding at your temples at 19, it's important to take action early. Here are some steps you can take to potentially slow down or even stop hair loss:
Early Intervention: Starting treatment early is key. The sooner you address hair loss, the better your chances of maintaining your hair.
Topical Minoxidil: This over-the-counter treatment can help stimulate hair growth and slow hair loss. Apply it consistently to the affected areas.
Oral Finasteride: Finasteride is a prescription medication that reduces DHT levels, a hormone linked to hair loss. It can be effective in slowing or stopping hair loss in men. However, discuss with a doctor before starting, as it may have side effects.
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): Devices like laser combs or caps can help stimulate hair growth and improve hair density.
Lifestyle Factors: Ensure you have a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health, like biotin, zinc, and vitamin D. Managing stress through regular exercise, meditation, or other relaxation techniques is also important, as stress can exacerbate hair loss.
Consult a Trichologist or Dermatologist: A specialist can offer a personalized treatment plan, which might include prescription medications, hair growth treatments, or other advanced therapies.
Addressing your hair loss now gives you the best chance of preserving your hair long-term.

Is there anything to help children. My child currently has a beautiful head of hair, but genetically I know we are prone to hair loss. Can I treat her hair and scalp? We are definitely taking into account nutrition, but since she is growing there is also question there around whether this is the time to, for example, cut out chicken.
It’s wonderful that you’re thinking proactively about your child’s hair health! 🌱 While many treatments for hair loss aren’t suitable for children, there are gentle, supportive practices you can put in place to promote a healthy scalp and hair for her as she grows.
### Here’s a Child-Friendly Approach to Scalp and Hair Care:
1. **Focus on a Nutrient-Rich Diet** 🥦🍓:
- **Protein** is essential, and since hair is primarily made of keratin (a protein), keeping balanced protein sources in her diet is important. If you're thinking of cutting out chicken, consider other protein sources like eggs, beans, lentils, and tofu.
- **Iron, Zinc, and Biotin**: Foods rich in these nutrients support hair growth and strength. Look for leafy greens, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and a variety of fruits and veggies.
2. **Scalp Care** 🧴:
- Keep her scalp clean and moisturized with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
- Occasionally, a mild, natural oil (like coconut or jojoba) can be massaged into her scalp to improve circulation and keep the skin hydrated.
3. **Gentle Handling** 🧘♀️:
- Minimize hair breakage by using a wide-tooth comb, and avoid pulling or tight hairstyles that could strain the hair follicles.
- If her hair is prone to tangling, a leave-in conditioner or a detangler spray can help reduce tugging.
4. **Sun Protection** ☀️:
- Children’s scalps are sensitive, so using hats or scarves to protect her scalp from harsh sun exposure is helpful.
### Early Healthy Habits
While genetic predisposition plays a role, starting healthy habits early can help maintain a strong foundation for her hair. She’s still young, so avoid any strong treatments and instead focus on gentle, natural practices.
Keeping these routines as part of her growing-up years can make a difference! 🌟

Hi sir,
Is it normal to get scalp oily 3 days after washing hair?
If not, my scalp is becoming oily
Does this cause hair loss?
If yes , then what to do sir?
That is normal for somebody who genetically has a higher level of DHT converting on the scalp . You need to wash your hair daily or, at the very least, every two days because this is an indication that you will most likely be suffering from a male pattern or female pattern loss soon. Here is a video on that exact topic ua-cam.com/video/o8OzWCDJP_M/v-deo.html
@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist sir my vitamin D3 level is 8. Does this effects ?
Been researching hair loss prevention and regrowth methods for years, but this the first time I heard about eating for your blood type. I’m AB+ so does that mean I have to be a pescatarian??? 😭
Will it help my hair if I stop smoking cigarettes?
But dont we lose 100 haits per day, so the zone test cant be acurate if its based one just 1 hair coming out 🤔
I was on the phone with your staff yesterday, and I'm going to run the Zone 3 blood test and send the results to you'll so you'll can put me at my Optimum levels. I'm taking all of your supplements as of now as well. I have a really bad scalp itch all over my head, and I'm losing hair all over. Any more suggestions of what I can do?
We really need to wait on the blood work, Once that comes back then that will give us some clarity
@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist Okay my blood work appointment is set tomorrow at 1:00 p.m.

Could you please recommend some natural DHT blockers that are easily accessible in India, something that could be included in the diet itself ? Also, does biotin help in hair loss, I am a non vegetarian and eat chicken, fish etc regularly.
There are several natural DHT blockers you can include in your diet that are easily accessible in India. Here are some great options:
🌿 **Saw Palmetto**: Though not native to India, it’s available in supplement form at health stores and online. It’s one of the most researched natural DHT blockers.
🍵 **Green Tea**: Rich in EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate), green tea can inhibit DHT production and reduce hair loss. Drinking a cup daily is a simple and effective way to include it in your routine.
🌰 **Pumpkin Seeds**: These are rich in zinc, which helps regulate hormones like DHT. You can snack on pumpkin seeds or include them in your meals as they’re easily found in Indian markets.
🥥 **Coconut Oil**: Though not a food you eat directly in large amounts, coconut oil is rich in lauric acid, which may help block DHT when applied to the scalp or consumed in moderation.
🥬 **Spinach & Kale**: These are loaded with magnesium and iron, both important for healthy hair growth and may have a role in balancing hormones related to hair loss.
🍛 **Turmeric**: This common Indian spice contains curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory properties and may help block DHT. It can be easily added to your daily meals.
As for **biotin**, it’s great for hair health but more for strengthening hair and improving texture rather than directly addressing hair loss. Since you're a non-vegetarian and consume chicken and fish regularly, you’re likely getting enough biotin from your diet. Biotin deficiencies are rare in non-vegetarians.
While biotin helps with hair strength, it’s not a DHT blocker, so it won’t directly prevent hair loss caused by androgenetic alopecia. But supplementing with biotin if you notice brittle hair or nails could be helpful.

Hi doctor! I have eaten saw palmetto 540mg every morning and noticed less hair fall. If I eat 540mg in the morning and 540 in the evening,will it help more?
Maybe, you may be at max potential, but it's worth a try. Give it a month or two weeks and monitor your shedding.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist okey, Thanks for answering! I used to lose 100 hair strain every day before saw palmetto and now i lose about 20-40 hair strain every day so it has improved but still thinning.
Hello sir i have used ur derma iron for 3 months still my ferritin is 52 before iron supplements i had 44 what is the problem behind this,other wise my b12,vit d r in super optimal range after taking ur supplement
It sounds like you've been diligently following our advice and taking the Derma Iron supplement, but you're not seeing the expected increase in your ferritin levels. While an increase from 44 to 52 does show some improvement, it's understandable that you were hoping for more significant results. Ferritin levels can be influenced by various factors, including absorption issues, diet, overall health, and the presence of chronic diseases. It's also important to ensure you're taking the supplement as recommended, possibly with vitamin C to enhance iron absorption.
Considering your B12 and vitamin D levels are in a super optimal range, which is great, it might be beneficial to revisit your overall health and diet to ensure there are no other underlying factors that could be affecting your ferritin levels. Sometimes, even with supplements, it takes a bit longer for ferritin levels to increase significantly, especially if your body is adjusting or if there are other health issues at play.
We recommend consulting with a trichologist to discuss your current regimen, including the Derma Iron supplement, to evaluate if any adjustments are needed or if further investigation is warranted to identify any underlying issues that might be impacting your ferritin levels. They might suggest additional tests or adjustments to your diet or supplement regimen to help improve your ferritin levels more effectively.
Keep up the great work with your health and remember, sometimes these things take a little time and adjustment to find the right balance for your body.

My dht లెవెల్ 87pg/ml but hair loss why sir..
What’s your advice for BDNF-related hair loss? BDNF and DHT both increase DKK1 expression, and magnesium l-threonate inhibits DKK1 expression, but only shown in vitro.
Just like many things in vitro vs in vivo, the real world application inside the human body doesn't necessarily apply when it has to go through normal biological human processes. It is very interesting but until a substance actually changes that expression inside the body then it really doesn't matter.
Will a calorie deficit cause hairloss? I've been dieting for a while off and on for about 2 years and that's when I noticed hairfall
No as long as you have proper blood levels of nutrients as I recommended in the video then you are good. I would Go ahead and get those tested though since you see a direct correlation with your diet.
I’m a 27 year old female and I have inflammation hair loss all over my body (my scalp, private pubic area, eyebrows and legs) what could this mean? The areas are red, flaky, along with the hair loss.
That sounds like seborrheic dermatitis. You're experiencing is pretty common in that regard and it's also related to levels of yeast in your bloodstream and an out of balance got microbiome. I would highly recommend getting your vitamin D3 up and making sure your nutrient levels are good because that will help control the immune response correctly. Meantime you can start consuming caprylic acid, and vitamin D3, and minimizing sugar and saturated fats
Thanks. I have been taking vitamins for two months now and trying to change my diet but I haven’t seen any improvement yet, just more hair loss. Will the inflammation eventually go down in my body and I can regain new hair growth? I’m worried if this is permanent hair loss since inflammation isn’t going and it’s been two months.
Does supplements really helps to block dht and regrow hair?
I wanna buy!
Supplements can help block DHT and support hair regrowth, but their effectiveness can vary depending on the individual and the specific supplement. Ingredients like saw palmetto, biotin, zinc, and certain vitamins have been shown to help reduce DHT levels and promote hair health. However, supplements often work best when combined with other treatments like topical solutions or medications. It's essential to choose high-quality supplements and consult with a healthcare professional to determine the right approach for your hair loss.

Can females take finasteride tablet for female pattern hair loss? Is it safe for females?
Hey doctor, i am suffering from excessive hair loss, due to excessive production of sebum on my scalp due to which its forming a wax like substance on my scalp blocking the follicles to grow, i consulted a dermatologist, and she's like its due to high testosterone levels or harmonal changes, i am having excessive sebum production and gave me oral minoxidil of 2.5mg and finasteride but my hair fall isn't stopping.. Could you please suggest me something to stop excessive sebum production and hair loss
The oral minoxidil will do nothing for the sebum production. You Need to get your vitamin D3 to 70 ng/mL, use a topical like the Foli growth performance serum to suppress sebaceous production with Azeliac acid topically, and use a natural internal DHD blocker like the DHT blocker with immune support by Advanced Trichology o

How could I know that I have genetic problem that cause my hair loss ?
Determining if your hair loss is genetic involves understanding your family history, identifying the pattern of hair loss, undergoing a thorough medical evaluation, and considering genetic testing. Consulting with a healthcare professional or trichologist is crucial for an accurate diagnosis and to develop an appropriate treatment plan tailored to your specific condition.

Hey William why minoxidil not giving results after trying 7 months
I have a video explaining this coming out soon. It's because you did not block the underlying reason for the hair loss. You need to look at DHT, nutrition, and inflammation.
Thanks david spade
I have the advanced trichology DHD blockers coming in the mail and will begin taking them. I'm suffering from the early stages of male pattern baldness due to DHD. I notice you also have foligrowth supplement. In what scenario would someone need to take that instead of DHD blocker, or are these supposed to be used in combination? Right now I'm looking to just stop the hairloss/progression of my male pattern baldness
Great question - would love to know too.
Hair loss on the sides or related to nutrition would be something to be looking at if you're D3, zinc, or ferritin is lower or compromised. DHT related losses on the top of the scalp but you may have both going on.
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist thank you I have both.
Is musturbation connected to hair loss because I am 17 years old and I am facing receding hairline
I avoided it completely to preserve my energy and lower the levels of prolactin.
Sir i am facing hairloss due to exessive sebum production my hair is lossing lot. i am taking topical minoxidil it doesnt work. What should i do?
Well I can only give you general thoughts because I don't know your specific details but to control save in production you need to decrease DHT. Do this with a natural dht blocker like the one in the video or finasteride. Also consider using a topical dht suppressant like the NutraM topical scalp serum. You need to be washing your hair daily correctly like the video that I have on the topic as well as minimize sugar and saturated fat.
Sir also i have hairloss in the body part such as eybrow private area.
Sir I am 20 and my hair is thinning like crazy and recently I am experiencing hair loss also i have done blood test everything is normal
Normal does not mean optimal for your hair. Plus there are 1000 and eight different blood tests and you need to make sure you're testing for the right thing
@@WilliamGaunitzTrichologist sir can you please give me one remedy which I can practice for one year and it will be my last try to revive my hairs as my scalp is now easily visible and after that I guess I will be bald for life time
