Brief Answer:
Management of hair loss

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to ask a doctor service
There are many causes of hair loss and treatment depends on the cause.
The most common causes are anemia, thyroid dysfunction, deficiency of vitamin D, vitamin B 12, hormonal imbalance, fever like typhoid and dengue, past history of accidents, surgery, trauma, stress , chronic diseases and certain drugs.
I would recommend you to get your haemoglobin, thyroid function tests, serum vitamin D levels, serum vitamin B12 levels and serum ferritin levels checked.
Meanwhile start with hair supplements like tablet follihair once daily and apply Anaboom antihair serum on the scalp twice daily.
These medicines need to be continued for 3-4 months to see significant results.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
