I don't think that it is directly related, there are many cause for hair fall.
Try to eat high protein foods like curd, eggs, paneer, chicken and also milk.
Try to take seeds like pumpkin, chia, seeds daily to improve the strength of hair

Hello,
Greetings from Dietitian Souvik Chakraborty, since your gall bladder got removed, your fat metabolism is not happening properly,for that reason your fat soluble vitamins & omega deficiency is noted, I think if you enhance omega suppliment by food only which can stop your hair fall control, so that alopecia will not be observed in recent future..
All the best...

Hi
Removal of gall bladder could be one of the reason for hair loss due to fat malabsorption that hampers absorption and storage of fat soluble vitamins .
