Brief Answer:
Telogen effluvium

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You are suffering from a condition called as Telogen effluvium ( Stress related hair fall).

Hair is very prone to any type of stress on body.
You had hepatitis as well as you took high dose of i pill.
Both of these have acted like a stress on your body.

Dont worry this type of hair fall is temporary and you will get good hair within a month or two.
I would like to recommend you some nutritional supplements, which will help in faster growth.
You can take tablet follihair daily one and apply minoxidil 2 % lotion on scalp daily in the night .
This combination will give you a faster relief.
Both the medications are easily available over the counter.

Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
