Hi. Greetings. In women, Anaemia, hormonal issues, environmental factors , pollution, stress, junk food and poor diet could cause you to lose hair. After adequate evaluation by dermatologist, You'll probably need treatment with hair care lotions or serums - something that has vasodilator properties and improves thickness of hair and reduces hair loss. Have a good balanced nutritious diet.For dandruff you'll need an antifungal shampoo with probably a low dose corticosteroid shampoo. See a dermatologist near you to get evaluated if you have any other scalp problem. Hope this helps. Further queries may be sent on follow up messaging. Warm regards.

Hello...a physical examination is necessary to know whether the hair loss is patterned or global. It seems that your hair loss is 2ndry to some systemic cause. This type of hair loss may follow pregnancy or a prolonged illness or physical or mental stress. Endocrine problems like Thyroid disorders may be a cause.
Next Steps
Visit a Dermatologist for examination and investigations.
