Im a woman and 19 yrs old and I am losing my hair like crazy, i barely have any anymore. I’d like to know what doctor i need to go to for the treatment of my hair loss. I was thinking of going to a dermatologist, but what if the problem is not on my scalp? will a dermatologist also perform blood tests to rule out the chances of anemia or other physical reasons for my hair loss?….or will they only examine my scalp?

what kind of doctor will perform tests on me to rule out all the possible causes ( blood test and scalp) will a regular general physcian do this or a dermatologist?

will appreciate knowledgeable answers
thank you
my hair loss is not only in certain spots (im not getting bald spots) it’s thinning and falling off from everywhere
i had this problem before i got pregnant but while pregnancy my hair stopped falling so much. the hair loss returned a few months after childbirth (about 3 months ago) and is now worst than ever

I’m a 21 year old female. I have not had any diseases or medications that have caused my hair loss. My two sisters and mother have full, healthy, and thick heads of hair. My father (in his late 50′s) has thinned hair, but no bald spots. My hair has always been straight and silky, but over the last year it has thinned out considerably. I can’t even wear my hair in a normal part because you can see my scalp through my thin hair for a couple inces down the side. I’m not sure if its early baldness (alopecia?) or what, but I need to fix this! I’ve been taking a multivitamin, fish oil, vitamen E, and Bioten for almost a year or more but there’s still no improvement. If anything, it’s just getting worse. I’ve seen ads for Rogaine and ScalpMed. Is there any product that actually works though? I am a college student with very limited funds, so it has to be very affordable.
Sorry I forgot to say-
I’ve seen a dermatologist, and all he suggested was extra strength Rogaine. He did blood tests to check for Lupus (my sister has it) as hairloss is common with that, but I was negative. All he said is that it might be early on-set alopecia (baldness). I usually wash my hair every other day, and I don’t color or treat my hair in any way. Oh and I’m white…. just thought I should say that as I know alopecia is a more common problem for Black women. But I’ve never known it to be a problem for white women.
