General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Hairfall is mainly experienced due to water borne fungal infection of scalp.
You can use Ketoconazole Shampoo daily for 21 days. After that you can use it alternate days.
Also once a week use Selenium based shampoo like Selsun.
Your hair fall should reduce in about two weeks.
All the best.
