Common causes of hair fall include androgenic androgenic alopecia, fungal infection, nutritional deficiency, alopecia areata, and cancer chemo/radiotherapy. Treatment depends upon the cause, but the most common cause in young male is androgenic alopecia.
Advice
1. Minoxidil gel 5% (Tugain gel) – 1 mL twice daily for 4 months

3. Capsule Adgain – one capsule daily orally for 3 months
4. High protein and vitamin rich diet such as eggs, meat, vegetables, cheese etc
