General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

It is normal for the hair to fall seasonally especially during April and May, and Autumn season. However, as it started about 6-8 months ago, I highly recommend to get a thorough examination by dermatologist, and evaluate the scalp for any pathological changes and treat it adequately.

Furthermore, I highly advise to watch what hair products have you started to use recently. If you suspect of any, please stop using it, and observe the changes in your hair.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
