Ur hair loss could be nutritional, visit a skin specialist, they will determine the amount and cause of hair loss also the reason after taking ur medical history . U can then go for the required blood tests . Hair loss is not a concern now a days as there are various therapies available. Prp , stem cell therapy, mesotherapy , and cyclical therapy depending on the cause .
