PAST HISTORY : Hair lose
Dr. Vivek Nair answered : 11 years ago
Hello,
Betamethasone is not appropriate treatment for hair loss unless the cause of the loss is an autoimmune problem like Alopecia Areata or Lupus. The most common causes for hair thinning are Telogen Effluvium and Male or Female Pattern Baldness and these are treated with drugs such as Minoxidil. Finasteride, Saw Palmetto among many others. You should see a second opinion from another dermatologist in your area and discuss these possibilities. All the best & regards
