Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your case history you are having telogen effluvium, my treatment advice is -
1. Use a good herbal hair oil and shampoo for routine use.
2. Take good nutritious diet full of green leafy vegetables and milk.
3. Take an iron supplement and vitamin B12 supplement.
4. Other treatment options are topical Minoxidil and mesotherapy done by a dermato-surgeon.
