What Causes Sudden Increase In Hairfall?

My hair is thinning and has been shedding non stop for aboit 4-5 months now. I have had bloodwork to check my thyroid, iron levels, a b12 and a folate test which all came back normal. I have also switched my birth control and am currently on my third month. I ve tried switching my diet, taking extra vitamins, changing my shampoo several times. I don t know what else to do.

Hi welcome to Healthcare Magic. Hairfall occurs due to various reasons, sone of them are listed below:-
1. Deficient diet
2. Stress- physical or mental
3. Insufficient sleep
4. Hypothyroidism
5. Using certain medications
6. Change in shampoo, water quality.
7. Applying hair colour or dyes.
8. Hereditary
I would suggest you to include more proteins in your diet.
Try meditation or breathing techniques. Stress is most important cause for hairfall.
Take sufficient sleep.
Oil your hair the previous night of your hair wash.
If hairfall still continues I'd suggest you to take homoeopathy medicines. Homoeopathy is a branch of medicine that works on the principle that like cures like. A detailed case will be taken and a similimum (medicine that suits your symptoms) would be prescribed. I will be here to help you if hairfall persists inspite of making the above mentioned changes. Take care.
Regards,
Dr Anuja.
