Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain hair fall in male commonly occurs due to hormonal and genetic causes and is known as Male Pattern Baldness or Androgenic Alopecia..
Other causes that can also cause hair fall comes under a condition known as Telogen Efluvium and is due to severe stress, malnutrition, long standing illness, side effects of medication etc..
You should consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like hormonal assy, complete blood picture, Dermoscopy and Trichogram can help in confirming the cause..
As you are already taking treatment for hairfall, you did not indicate the medications that you are taking so considering that you are being treated with the common hairfall medicines like Minoxidil 5% lotion that can be applied on scalp and taking Biotin and multivitamin and mineral supplements..
You can also be advised Finesteride tablets or Saw Palmaetto that also works like Finesteride by suppressing the hormones and does not have side effects like Finesteride..
It can take around 6 months to 1 years for seeing some apparent improvement and even can take longer..
You should also massage your scalp with warm coconut oil and maintain clean scalp..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
