Jaindice can cause hairfall. There are many reasons for hairfall or thinning of hair on the scalp. So first and foremost we have to find the cause with the help of detailed history and examination. Some of the common causes are nutritional deficiency, hormonal causes like androgenic alopecia or patterned baldness, hypothyroidism, telogen effluvium etc. Unless we find and treat the cause there is no point in giving non specific treatment. Oils or shampoos do not have any effect on hair growth as they are not absorbed in the skin. Moreover, you should never self treat with anything. Please call me or send photographs using online consult option for proper diagnosis and detailed prescription.

Hi looks like you have some form of nutritional deficiency. Taking oral vitamins without analysing will not be of any help. These are to be taken only if they are deficient. Overdosing with vitamins can make the condition worse. I would suggest you to meet a dermatologist in person and check your serum levels of vitamins and then proceed for appreciable results
