For hair loss, you should visit the Department of Dermatology at a hospital. Hair loss can result from various causes, including genetic factors, environmental influences, endocrine disorders, and lifestyle habits. If you experience hair loss, it is advisable to seek evaluation at a reputable medical facility as soon as possible to identify the specific underlying cause. Subsequently, treatment should be administered under the guidance of a physician based on the diagnosed cause, to prevent worsening of hair loss due to prolonged delay in treatment.
