why hair loss happen - #25236

Nikhil

I am really struggling with this hair loss situation and I’m freaking out a bit. I always had thick hair, you know? But over the last couple of months, I’ve noticed so much fallin’ out. Like, every time I shower or even just run my fingers through it, I’m seeing strands everywhere! I mean, I thought maybe it was stress from work or something, but it just keeps going. My dad had a thinning problem but he was older, and I’m only in my 30s! Last week, I went to a doc and she did some tests, like checking for thyroid issues and things, but all those came back normal. I can’t help but wonder, why hair loss happen in people like me? Is it diet? Am I missing some vitamins or something? I started obsessively Googling “why hair loss happen” and came across some info on how it could be hereditary or even hormonal. Sometimes, I see small patches too, and it makes me feel super self-conscious in front of people. Friends keep telling me don’t worry but I’m seriously curious about this—why hair loss happen, especially if I’m trying to take care of myself? Can anxiety really play a role, or is it just a sign I'm getting old? Ugh, I just want to fix this!
