Suggest Treatment For Severe Hair Loss

I m a 34yrying old female. I m having severe hair loss. It s also very thin and frizzy. I often get small itchy bumps in several places on my scalp and I often scratch them (I know I shouldn t) This rash had also spread to my hair line and face. What could it be and how should I treat? Please let me know specific products and/or blood tests

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first diagnose the cause for hair loss.
Hyperthyroidism, vitamin B12 deficiency, vitamin D3 deficiency, anemia etc are common causes for hair loss.
So get done thyroid function test, vitamin B12 levels, vitamin D3 levels and hemoglobin estimation to diagnose above mentioned causes.
Yoi will need treatment according two the diagnosis.
So consult doctor and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
