Hello,

You can use medications like Minoxidil (Rogaine), rub it into your scalp or spray it. Finasteride (Propecia), it's an oral pill that you can take once a day.

Keep your scalp clean, dandruff causes hair loss. Use Selsun Shampoo of any other medicated shampoo to keep your scalp dandruff free. You can also use lemon juice on your scalp to avoid dandruff.

To fight hair loss take nutritious food, like yogurt, walnuts, omega 3 fatty acids, proteins, dairy products, food rich in calcium, take vitamin B6, B7, B12, iron, zinc, magnesium supplements.

You can visit a dermatologist, get physically examined and treated at the earliest.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
