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

Along with follihair which is a multivitamin hair nutrient tablet you might want to consider doing PRP (platelet rejuvenation plasma) where the plasma from your own blood is injected into the scalp once every 4 to 5 weeks for at least 8 to 10 sessions which further reduces hair fall, strengthens hair follicles and stimulates new hair growth. Along with the above, I suggest you also start topical Minoxidil 5% to 10% every night for at least a year to see optimal result. Minoxidil stimulates new hair growth too. Suggest to also improve your nutrient intake via foods rich in vitamin B and ferritin.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Smruti Pevekar
