What Is The Treatment For Hair Loss In Crown Area?

I am having loss of hair on the crown area. The problem had started year back. Now I see a lot of hair loss. I have not taken any medicine or not started any treatment for this condition. I have been eating health and lot of vegetables. Oiling the scalp with warm oil. But I don't see any improvement. Rather I feel depressed about the bald patch visibility please help .is there any medicine or treatment that I can get ?
