    You have to have a diet that contains vitamin E.Also drink a lot of water daily.Avoid going in direct sunlight and comb your hair regularly.

    There is one good natural medication i can suggest you.Take some yogurt and blend it with egg white and apply on your scalp.You can do that on alternate days.

    It does work cuz yogurt has got vitamin C and egg white contains a lot proteins which is vitally essential for stronger hair.

    I think what you have is post-partum alopecia. It happens after usually 3 to 9 months after pregnancy. Its not permanent and the hair will grow back.
