Hi all,

I have for the past 2 months experienced a lot of itch in my hair especially at the back of my head. And whenever I lay my head on the pillow it itches and burns even more. I have noticed the itch gets worse in winter, hot baths (sauna), spices (especially red chilli and turmeric). Does anyone have this same problem and could you please help me out. Thanks in advance to any forthcoming response.

Shave it off

Could be caused by oily skin. If you don't lose hair from that spot then it could just be oil sebum. You can try lowering your carb intake. Increase your (saturated) fat intake.

I also have itchy scalp sometimes from the oilier skin but it does not bother me.

If you have MPB then you will have to fix that to get rid of it.

I am loosing some hair everyday and thats why I want to understand the root cause if someone else also has the same. I do intermittent fasting and eat 1 big meal (100gms Carbs, 300gms white meat and 1-2Tbsp Coconut oil). Carb sources are mostly white rice, potatoes, onions. One thing I also forgot to mention is apart from the triggers above is anytime I eat mildly acidic foods (Orange juice, red meat etc) I tend to have more itchier scalp.

This is my answer for almost everything but, just start tei and it will eventually fix it. I had terrible scalp itch after saw palmetto. Sometimes it's worse on tei but it's trending down as tei slowly fixes all of my issues.

Do you have pfs?

Thanks Goose. No I dont have PFS, but after reading through some forums seems like my symptoms are because of a toxic liver whatever that means. Im a slow oxidiser and eat mostly rice, fish, chicken and few veggies. What I have noticed thus far is Hot showers, walking in the sun for too long, acidic foods, chocolate , anything fatty (Cooking oils) and lying on my bed pillow gives me a bad scalp itch.
