Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Hairfall is multifactorial: change of place/ change of weather/ hereditary/ dandruff/ poor nutrition and diet/ erratic lifestyle/ stress etc to name a few. Once you know the causes you can work towards them. I suggest you visit a dermatologist who could guide you with further treatments such as PRP (platelet rejuvenation plasma) where plasma from your own blood is injected into your scalp which further strengthens the hair follicles and stimulates new hair growth. You could start applying Minoxidil 5% once at night all over your scalp which again promotes new hair growth. Start working on improving your nutrition quotient too: eggs, green leafy vegs, nuts, lentils, pumpkin seeds etc. Start a multivitamin tablet with biotin in it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
