You need to see your Dr. ASAP. You may be sent to a Dermatologist. You might

have Alopecia. I have known several people with it. But no matter what the

problem is, you need to have it seen to quickly. Good luck.

Go see your doc first and foremost. It could be anything from a simple vitamin deficiency to something as complex as a metabolic disorder causing male pattern baldness (I speak from experience and one of them that can cause it is PCOS if you care to look it up just in case you were wondering about it)

Still, ANY drastic changes in what your body does normally need to be checked into, so go see your doc....and your hairdresser who may have a few suggestions for you.

All of this is assuming you mean massive hair loss, not the normal 70-100 strands a day. You also go through a thinning in your mid 20's natrually. At least that is why I have been told by hairdressers when I first started freaking out about mine falling out.

Good luck, HTH, sorry about your hair :-(

It could be that you are under huge stress or take in too much MSG. You could go to Beijing 101 for help.

Hair loss can be caused by any number of things, but in many cases the hair loss is attributed to alopecia, which is more of a non-specific syndrome than an actual disease. If you have alopecia, your baldness could reverse itself, or it could be permanent. One tell-tale sign is a loss of hair in large spots instead of a general thinning. Are your eyebrows falling out? Eyelashes? What about the condition of your fingernails?

You *should* see a doctor, but be prepared for confusion (many GPs don't have any experience with female baldness) and multiple referrals before you find a suitable qualified specialist. My mother went through this, and I sympathize. Good luck!

Usually the first thing we think is that it's a severe health disorder. But you could simply be going through a hair-growth period. This lasts 3 months and you can lose a lot of hair during this time as the new ones pop up. You should see the little baby hairs growing. Wear your hair in plaits to minimize the loss, it really helps me.

More seriously, you could be lacking protein or certain amino acids. When you are in short supply, the amino acids go to your muscles where you need them most, so your hair and nails get very weak and fall out. Eat a lot of fish and Omega 3.

God forbid, if your hair is falling out in clumps and your hair is now thinner you should see your doctor for a test for something more serious.

Is your skin changing color also; Michael Jackson started this way. Better see a doctor and forget this stupid idea of asking for help on Yahoo Q%26amp;A.

Hello,

Hair loss is often caused by what we eat, and our over health in general. Take your vitamins and eat a balanced as well as exercise. Exercise helps the blood flow and gets more oxygen to the scalp. Great site to visit juliashaircare.com

stress can often cause our hair to fall out as can over processing our hair. you should go to your family doctor and get him to get to the bottom of it. a lack of nutrients can also do it.
