I am 30 year old female and have a second cesarean delivery 3 months ago, now I have serious problem of hair fall, what should I do?

Question

" excessive hair fall can be due to male pattern baldness, physical illness or mental stress in the past 3-6 months, low serum ferritin or nutritional deficiency, certain medical conditions like thyroid and other hormonal disorders.
So appropriate blood tests for ruling out above conditions may be done if indicated.
Take a nutritious and protein rich diet (pulses, milk products, eggs).
Avoid routine application of gels or frequent blow drying of your hair. Use a sulfate free shampoo for your hair twice a week. Biotin containing hair supplements can be taken for 3-6 months. Good luck!
