Is it normal to suffer from a lot of hair loss once you begin your period?
Sunday, September 27th, 2009Ines J asked:
I am 12 and 1/2 and have just started my period. I am suffering from extreme hair loss, by that I mean that when I brush my hair with my fingers many strands fall out, or when I am in the shower clumps of hair will come out and when I tie my hair and then untie it hair will be wrapped around the hair tie. Is this normal. I am really nervous as I can almost feel my hair thinning! Help!

HAIR loss?
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009What could it mean if I am experiencing hair loss as side effect of medicine?

Hair loss is listed in the side effects for the medicine amitriptyline that I am taking. I was just wondering what could cause it. The sheet that I received with it said to consult doctor if you experience hair loss. I’m not, like, losing chunks or anything, but I keep finding a lot more hair all over the house. And when I am in the shower there is a lot more hair falling out when I run my fingers thourgh is and wash it.

What do I do for an abnormal amount of hair loss?
Thursday, August 6th, 2009Meg W asked:
I’ve always had very thick hair, thank goodness. I’ve let my hair grow and have it colored/highlighted about every 5-6 weeks, but I’ve done that for years. I can run my hand through my hair and come up with 20 to 50 hairs in my fingers and I’m not pulling hard. My brush is full after brushing my hair once. When I would pull my hair back in a ponytail it was very thick and lots to work with, but now it’s only about 3/4 inch in diameter. I don’t pull it back anymore for fear that that is one of the problems. I am not taking any new medication and there doesn’t seem to be a logical reason for the hair loss. My mother said it was “seasonal shedding,” but I’ve never had it like this ever! I have it trimmed just a little each time to prevent split ends damaging my hair. Can anyone help? Any suggestions? I would appreciate any reasonable solution.
