Brief Answer:
Management of hair fall

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
I have gone through your query.
There are many causes of hair loss and treatment depends on the cause.
The most common causes are anemia, hormonal imbalance, thyroid dysfunction, vitamin deficiencies, chronic diseases, certain drugs, recent history of typhoid, dengue, surgery, accidents, trauma, crash dieting, stress and child birth.
I would recommend you to get your haemoglobin, thyroid function tests, serum vitamin D levels, serum vitamin B 12 levels and serum ferritin levels checked to exclude the causes of hair loss.
Meanwhile start with hair supplement tablets containing biotin once daily.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
