HAIR THINNING OR SCANTY HAIR
Hair thinning refers to minor to moderate hair loss. Unlike severe hair loss, hair thinning might not lead to baldness. However, your hair might appear scanty or thin in areas on the scalp or throughout your scalp. Hair thinning is a gradual process and hence, timely measures can be taken to avoid extreme issues.
What causes hair thinning or scanty hair?
