Stress can cause huge hair loss. If your body is prone to inflammation, then stress increases the inflammation and this inflammation leads to increase hair loss. For me, a lot of stress caused a huge hair loss, and I was thinking of all these things that you do now. (Rogain, androgen elevation, Nizoral shampoos etc). But once I stopped getting stressed so much, my hair loss subsided and it seems to be growing back also.
Also another thing that might help is, milk and any other animal protein caused me more inflammation ( I have rheumatoid arthritis ) which is due to inflammation as well. So stopping any animal protein intake helped.
This was for me. But it might be different for you. But managing the stress and trying to go on a vegan diet should help atleast a little bit. Plus I also tried some cleansing programs like enemas and stuff. I don't know if that helped or not.
I was also on drugs like Methotrexate which caused hair loss for me. Stopping them also helped.
Are you on any drugs?
