Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

Hair loss can be for many reasons. In males it is mostly male-pattern baldness. But there can be other reasons too like dandruff, autoimmune, etc.

The treatment depends on the cause.

If it is male-pattern baldness, then local minoxidil cream would be effective.

Biotin supplements taken once a day may help.

Thus you need to see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis.
