Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Post dengue it is extremely common to face hair fall as the platelets in your body diminishes considerably. Work on your nutrition
Have multivitamin tablets which especially contain biotin
Hope that helps!
