Brief Answer:
How many hair shed daily?

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome here,

There could be many causes of hair loss like nutritional deficiency (dieting), vitamin deficiency, some stress or infection, androgenic, dandruff, chemical/medicine based shampoos or other hair products, etc

Management is done according to the cause. If there seems to be any dieting, then nutritious home made food needs to be taken. If the vitamins are deficient in blood reports then vitamins like biotin and folate can be taken e.g follihair tablet.

In androgenic alopecia there is history of hair loss in other male members of the family. In androgenic hair loss, minoxidil solution e.g Mintop Forte 5% can be tried under doctor's guidance as it may affect fertility.
Use natural, non-medicinal hair care products.
Nowadays hair transplants are also very common.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
