Mango does not cause hair loss. In fact, I do not know of any specific foods that would cause hair loss. Perhaps if you have a severe allergy to a certain food, that could cause hair loss… but in general, normal foods do not cause hair loss. Good luck with your school topic. If you […]

Snippet from the article: Read the full story at BBC News While it is true that hair extensions can lead to traction alopecia, the idea of banning them likely won’t go very far. Groups like this issue a press release with some big proclamation (in this case, banning extensions), in hopes that a news organization […]
“Seborrheic dermatitis is a common, inflammatory skin condition that causes flaky, white to yellowish scales to form on oily areas such as the scalp or inside the ear. It can occur with or without reddened skin.” (Source: Google Health) Seborrheic dermatitis CAN cause hair loss when the scalp is scratched, but it is not the […]
I’m familiar with fibrous dysplasia (it is a very rare bone disease), but I do not know what surgery you have had or what medications you take. Your question is very general and it is not something I can give you an answer to in this format. You need to see a physician and have […]
I would doubt that the light from the hand held microscope will have any impact on the health of your hair.
Human growth hormone (HGH) has anabolic properties that include increased androgen production. Increased androgens contribute to the androgenic alopecia (as the term implies). The impact of hair loss from HGH or androgens like testosterone is generally not reversible. It seems you are doing everything you can, but still losing the battle.
For Propecia results, I’d say 6-12 months. Benefits could be just halting the hair loss, not necessarily regrowth… so keep that in mind when you’re looking at results. Getting hair cloning to be effective and reliable is the first step. Making it available to the public is quite another. Maybe it’ll be ready in another […]
Any surgery like you describe (since it is stressful) could kick-start hair loss in men. With that being said, I generally recommend that the hairline lowering procedure (where a piece of forehead is removed and the hairline is brought down) is not a procedure for men. On the remote possibility that there is late onset […]
What sort of proof are you looking for? Sebum is an oily substance secreted by the sebaceous glands. We all have sebaceous glands and we all secrete sebum. Sebaceous glands secrete the oil to give your hair the healthy shine, coating and protecting it from the environment so your hair does not get brittle and […]
The association of hair loss with any medication could be a cover-your-ass approach by various drug companies who find it easier to mention hair loss than ignore a possible association from a medical/legal point of view. As a hair transplant surgeon, I am not in a position to form an opinion of my own about […]
While I highly doubt in vitro fertilization (IVF) causes hair loss, if what you described was generalized, I would expect that the massive hormone manipulations that occur with IVF could cause diffuse hair loss. The descriptive nature of “nickle sized bald spots” is suggestive of conditions like alopecia areata. I would recommend seeing your dermatologist […]
I have heard many accounts that chemical hair relaxers have caused hair loss from the chemical stress/burn. Most of what is lost usually grows back, but it can take over a year. There is no such thing as PERFECT in real life and everyone has a different impact from chemicals, even a different impact over […]
Professionals make mistakes on occasion so the use of relaxers always put you at risk for chemical burns. In the hands of experienced professionals, I would think that the risks are minimal. With that said, I just met with a nice lady who had a professional use a relaxer on her hair about a year […]
Seborrheic dermatitis causes scaly, itchy, red skin and dandruff. It is a skin condition. It is not a hair condition. Telogen effluvium is diffuse hair shedding which is triggered by some form of stress that makes the hair go into the shedding (telogen) cycle. Hairs usually grow back in 6 to 12 months. I suppose […]
The answer is simply: NO. Water is good for you, but you can be poisoned with salt water or chlorine water, not the metals in the shower water in the United States.
