Hello,
You are correct in guessing that scalp itching and hair loss can be due to fungal infection. Hair fall can be caused if you have fever, stress, imbalanced diet, medications and hormonal changes. If there is underlying disease or nutritional deficiency .Give your diet an overhaul if you're lacking vital nutrients for growth and switch to foods for healthy hair. If it's related to an illness, it can be reversed by effectively treating the underlying cause.

To check whether there is a fungal infection causing such symptoms, you need to get a KOH examination of the skin scrapings of the scalp done.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
