Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
Hair loss could be due to a lot of reasons. It could be the stress due physical ailments or psychological stress. All these usually cause a condition called telogen effluvium. There are other types of hair fall like patterned (Female /Male pattern baldness) or alopecia areata, scarring alopecia etc. Therefore it is important first to go for a consultation with a dermatologist to assess the type of hair fall you have as the treatments vary.
We treat Telogen effluvium with vitamin supplements containing biotin, calcium pantothenate , anti-oxidants and minerals for a duration of atleast 3 months.
Biotin rich foods are carrots, almonds, walnut, cucumber, cauliflower, milk and eggs. Eggs also have protein and amino acids required for hair growth.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
