I do not have any medical diseases, neither thyroid nor diabetes.
I'm not putting on weight. I'm constant on my weight.

I took iron supplements for 3 months post delivery. Currently continuing with calcium supplements.

I take head bath once in three days since I'm loosing chunks of hair during this process.

You definitely need check up

Detailed Answer:
Hi
There must be some reason for your hair fall if it is severe. Finding the cause is very important because there are no direct medicine to prevent hair fall.
Correcting problems making hair fall is the solution.
You can either consult a dermatologist or an endocrinologist.
Time being you can take biotin and multivitamins.
