Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

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

As per your complain it seems that you are suffering from Seborrheic Dermatitis and it can be a probable cause for hairfall..
Other causes can be Androgenic Alopaecia caused due to hormones and genetc predisposition..
It can be due to Telogen Effluvium that is due to fungal infection (Seborrheic Dermatitis), long standing illness, side effects of medicines and skin cosmetics, stress, Nutritional Deficiencies etc..
Consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and he can do a clinical evaluation and also advise investigations like Blood tests, hormonal assy,/Trichogram, Dermoscopy etc to confirm the exact cause and treatment can be planned accordingly..
You can be advised to apply shampoo on scalp containing Ketoconazole, coal tar, Zinc, selenium, sulfides etc..
You can be advised to apply Steroid lotion on the scalp.
You can also be advised to apply 5% Minoxidil solution over the scalp as it helps in reducing hairfall.
Take biotin and Multivitamin supplements..
In case of Androgenic Alopaecia you can be advised to take Finestaride orally that helps in suppressing hormones and preventing hairfall..
You can also massage you scalp with warm coconut oil..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
