It’s Hot and Humid Here, and I Wear a Bike Helmet

Hi,
i have a quick question.Im 18 years old and live in chennai, india its pretty hot and humid here.

I have recently (2 months back) started driving a bike and hence started wearing a helmet regularly. i have noticed my hair thinning on the top. can it be due to wearing a helmet? is there any solution to this?

Thanks in advance

Helmets or hats or hot weather do not usually cause hair loss… unless perhaps your helmet is very tight and it is rubbing continuously on your scalp. It is more likely to be genetics than wearing a bike helmet.

There is no absolute solution / cure for hair loss, but if it is early genetic loss, the medications I would talk to your doctor about are finasteride and minoxidil.
