Hello,
Welcome to health care magic.
Severe hair loss over few months is called telogen effluvium.
It is a hair loss pattern usually triggered by a physical illness (like viral fever, typhoid fever, hepatitis, etc), stress, crash dieting, weight loss, child birth and surgery which you would have about 3 - 6 months prior to onset of hair fall.
It could also be due to underlying anaemia and thyroid abnormalities.
You need to check your hemoglobin levels, serum ferritin levels and thyroid status.
Have good diet including green leafy vegetables, eggs, dates.
You could take oral supplements containing biotin 5 mg which will strengthen your hair roots.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
