There are many reasons why hairfall occurs. There are hormonal causes (thyroid abnormalities, PCOD), nutritional causes (deficiency of iron, vitamin B12, vitamin D3), stress-related causes (such as after any psychological stress, illnesses like dengue and typhoid, after exams) and patterned hair loss due to auto-immune disorder.
For you, we have to find out the exact reason and treat that.
For further management, it is better to consult a dermatologist near you or opt for direct online consultation with me where you can share photographs of your scalp.
