Welcome to Healthcare Magic
You could be having hormonal disorder which is causing this hair loss. But one cannot be sure, so please consult Dermatologist to find the right cause. Good medication like Minoxidil hair solution will promote hair growth. Avoid stress. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Get 6-8 hours of sleep daily.
