I suffered from typhoid back in 2019 and had a constant 105 degrees fever for approximately 2 weeks. I recovered well but started experiencing extreme hairfall after two months, lost 80% of my hair. Consulted Dr Faria asad and she prescribed many medicines which i dont remember completely but some of them were:

- Pillus Spray - Bioxine hair oil - Biotin - Zinc

It worked well and it showed improvement within a month. My hair did well and made a full healthy recovery till 2021.

Ok don't worry.. It's telogen effluvium. As you have already tried multiple treatments with variable results you can undergo PRP with mesotherapy for the satisfactory results.

Cause of your hair fall is Telogen Effluvium. All the treatment prescribed is helpful. Plz continue the treatment. The hairfall will improve in sha Allah.

Dear continue your treatment as prescribed and wait for at least 6 months to see response
Meanwhile get your CBC for Haemoglobin and serum vit D3 done as deficiencies of these are also lead to hair fall and low immunity

first rule out the cause of hairfall..
go for basic tests like blood CP, serum folate , vitamin B12, thyroid profile, vitamin D

then consult dermatologist.

Its better to post a current picture of your current situation regarding scalp. So one can guide you better. It cud be any other underlying cause as well. Needs to be asked few more questions.

Can u pls get an appointment so your problem can be examined and treated

It seems that tour immunity is low as well not recovering properly. I would recommend using
-Fruits
-Nuts
-Good water intake in your daily routine.
Do avoid
-junks
-fried items
- Hotel meals
-soft drinks
- excessive chai/ coffee in your daily routine.

Medicines prescribed are perfect but add some good multi vitamins along with the precautions mentioned above.
Dont forget to recite drud shrif and make due for tour hairs daily.
Allah shifa e kamila ata frmaen . Ameen
