Thinning of hair can be due to improper diet,genetic factors,allergy,due to severe illness or prolonged use of certain drugs.Nutrition is very important since inadequate nutrition makes the hair dry and low amount of minerals make the hair weak.It can also be due to stress and other psychological issues.Prolonged exposure to radiations can also contribute to this.Most of the thinning hair treatment focus of balanced and mineral rich diet.

Research shows that DHT is a hormone which plays a significant role in most of the hair fall cases.It is a hormone which is formed on the scalp which damages the hair follicles and make them weak and thin.Medicine like Propecia and minidoxil etc act by blocking this hormone.There are many DHT shampoo available in the market for treatment of pattern baldness and hair fall.
