Many different possible causes for hair loss to include nutritional deficiencies or hormonal changes in the body. So something non surgically such as Rogaine and low level light therapy may work. I would suggest to go to your primary doctor to do some tests and blood work to check if you lack any vitamins, minerals or if you have a hormonal unbalance. Your provider will go through an extensive history and physical that will include laboratory evaluation and possible biopsy.

Hair loss treatments for women
Very sorry to hear of your condition.
Because women's hair loss is usually diffused, only a small percentage of women are good candidates for hair transplantation. Other modalities such as Rogaine and Luce have worked well.
An evaluation by your physician would be a good start. You can also seek out a hair specialist in your area and let them take a look at your hair and advise what would work best for you.
