why too much hair fall - #23571
I am dealing with this super frustrating issue of why too much hair fall seems to be a constant problem for me lately. I used to have thick hair, but now it feels like I'm losing strands every time I brush or even wash my hair! It started about six months ago when I went through a pretty stressful time at work. I thought maybe it was just stress, but then I tried a bunch of different shampoos and treatments, and nothing seems to work. I noticed the hair fall is worse in the shower, like giant clumps—ew! And even on my clothes, I can see more strands than I'm comfortable with. I've been eating pretty healthy, taking vitamins, and I don't have any known conditions that I know of. A friend suggested anxiety might be a reason too, but why too much hair fall happens even when I feel relaxed sometimes? My family has a history of thinning hair, but I always thought that was more of an issue for men, you know? I really wanna know why too much hair fall is happening to me, especially since I’m not old yet! Is there something specific that doctors would think of, or tests I should be asking about? Any help would be awesome!
