hello there,
If you are 17 and you are losing hair first i need to ask you is are you stressed? Exams/Breakup anything? Hair normally follows a 3 month cycle and any stress event in the last 3 months may have triggered hair loss which is continuing till now.
Second is nutrition. You should be getting adequate protein and iron as that will help your hair grow. Good protein sources include eggs, pulses, soya, meat. Iron is found in green vegetables like spinach,methi(fenugreek) or can be supplemented with iron tablets. If you eat out frequently or do not have fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet then you may consider taking a multivitamin on alternate days.
Regarding minscalp it promotes hair growth. So you can continue to use it.
For reducing oiliness in hair you can use a shampoo like sebamed which is recommended in hair loss .
Hope this helps,
Please feel free to address any further queries to me. I will be happy to answer them
