Hi.. If you are loosing hair in the front portion and top region of your head . And there is no hair loss on side and back portion then you are having male pattern hairloss. It needs through evaluation and treatment because here the roots gets miniaturised from inside.
Hard water , pollution, stress, not having proper diet , colouring, etc.. All these factors aggravate hairloss if the roots are weak
Consult a trichologist / dermatologist for further treatment
Thanks

Hard water is a cause of hair loss for many. You can start using a clinically mild shampoo and using soft water for hair wash.
Dandruff and male pattern baldness are other common causes of hair loss at this age.
Pls visit a dermatologist near you for review .
