Hi,
Probably you may be having telogen effluvium.. There may be some cause. Most common cause is psychological upsets like anxiety,worries,tension or depression. Other causes may thyroid dysfunction, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, anaemia, other internal diseases,drugs..etc. Dandruff is also important cause for your hairloss.
You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. Blood investigations may be done to find out some other internal cause.
You may take biotin 10 mg tablets for long time.
And vitamin E cap 400 mg may be taken.
You may apply mild steroid lotion like beclomethasone lotion on scalp at night.
Mild herbal shampoo may be used to cleanse the scalp.
Almond oil may be applied in hairs to improve the shaft quality.
Have patience for the result. I hope you got my answer.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
