Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe hair loss which could be due to many reasons like improper hygiene, nutritional deficiencies, genetic factor, fungal infection, improper cleanliness and hormonal changes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to wash hairs after proper massage with olive oil. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test, skin patch test and can do physical examination . Doctor may prescribe you drug like finpecia at least for 2-3 months or antifungal treatment along with minoxidil spray. You should maintain complete hygiene. You should use Finasteride preparations. You should take supplements like Vitamin A ,Omega-3 and Vitamin E.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
