Hi, Probably you may be having halogen effluvium. It may be due to some cause. Most common cause is psychological upsets like anxiety, worries,tension or depression. Other causes may be thyroid dysfunction, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, anemia, other internal diseases, Chat Doctor. .etc. Normal hair fall in adult may be 100 to 150 per day. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis and treatment. Blood investigations may be done to find out some other internal cause. You may take biotin containing tablets for long time along with vitamin E cap. You may apply mild steroid lotion like beclomethasone lotion on scalp at night. Mild herbal shampoo and almond oil may be used. Have patience for the result. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
