Hair loss needs to be dealt with according to the cause, which includes androgenetic alopecia, baldness, bad habits, skin diseases, etc. The treatment involved includes relieving the cause, medication (minoxidil application, etc.) and surgery.
1. Androgenetic alopecia: As the patient’s hair follicles are more sensitive to androgen, it will lead to shrinkage and degeneration of hair follicles, resulting in hair loss. Male patients can take oral finasteride, female patients can take oral spironolactone, etc., together with the application of minoxidil, and for patients with more serious conditions, hair transplantation is also available.
2. Patchy baldness: Patients with patchy baldness will have irregularly shaped areas of hair loss, and fall off in lumps. It can be improved by applying minoxidil cream, or injecting compound betamethasone injection, prednisolone suspension and other medications in the hair loss area. Take vitamin B complex, prednisone and other medications orally.
3. Bad habits: If you tie your hair too tightly and too high for a long time, excessive pulling of the hair may lead to hair loss or breakage. Generally do not need to use drugs, need to actively eliminate the cause of the disease, usually avoid the hair tied too high and too tight, avoid excessive dyeing and perming hair.
4. Skin diseases: Bacterial or fungal infections can damage hair follicles and cause hair loss.

Bacterial infections can be treated with medications such as erythromycin ointment and fusidic acid cream.
