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

Hair fall is multifaceted: hereditary/ stress / poor lifestyle / hormonal changes / weather changes / poor nutrition / dandruff etc to name a few. Once you know the cause it is important to treat it accordingly for better results. I suggest you visit a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and further treatment. They will start you on some multivitamins with biotin. Minoxidil 5% every night for a minimum of 8-10 months is also advised for stimulating new hair growth.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
