Hi and welcome to HCM
In your case, the hair fall ,maybe prolonged due to other factors as well, such as poor nutrition, stress, lack of rest, low iron and hemoglobin levels, hormonal changes, also any history of thyroid disorders etc. Dandruff,Chemical treatments on hair can also aggravate hair fall.

These causes need to be considered and treated as they affect hair growth.
You can consult a dermatologist regarding any blood tests that may be required to diagnose the causes. They can assess your hair in person and advise accordingly. They may advise hemoglobin, iron, hormone levels if needed.
Your treatment needs to be continued at least for 2-3 months to see results. after hair fall stops, it takes time for new hair to grow as well. Use mild shampoo and conditioner like Hair4U. Some people also have a little initial hair fall with minoxidil but it usually stops.

Do continue with the treatment as advised and see a doctor regularly.
If your hair is very thin and scanty on the scalp, and medical methods do not work well for you,after a few months of observation, certain new surgical procedures can be considered such as PRP, as will be advised by your consulting doctor after observation, if they feel that it will be a good option for you. But this can be considered later.
Also get a good nutritious diet, avoid stress,pollution, get good rest.
Hope this guides you.
