Understanding your concern. As per your query you have hair loss i.e alopecia which seems to be due to fungal infection, poor hygiene, systemic pathology, stress and hormonal changes. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain cleanliness and take diet rich in multivitamins. Drink plenty of water and apply apply vitamin E oil at night. Apply onion juice once a week. Consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order skin patch test , blood test and physical examination. Doctor may prescribe you drug like finpecia at least for 3-4 months. Take Indian goose berry powder with water once a day half tea spoon.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
