Hi,
Your hair fall might be due to your dandruff problem. Firstly stop oiling your scalp as it aggravates dandruff. Use a good anti dandruff shampoo three days in a week(salisia kt shampoo would be a good choice). Also apply a steroid anti fungal lotion like candid b lotion every night. Once the dandruff subsides, hair fall would also reduce. To aid further re growth of hair, minoxidil solution can be used. Hope that answers your query. Take care.
