I'm sixteen years old (17 this June), don't have any medical problems that I know of, I'm not on any medication, and I'm not under a lot of stress or anything like that.
I'm not sure how long ago, but I noticed that a lot of my hair ends up in the shower drain. Like, a lot. I used to dye my hair a lot, so I stopped to see if it would help. I have roots longer then an inch now, and I'm still loosing a lot of hair. I checked out the back of my head in a mirror, and in some places if my hair shifts there'll be small patches of hairless skin. I've considered that it could be genetic. My mother's hair is thinning, but she's also going through menopause. Her own mother still has a full head of hair.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? Short of going to a doctor (if this persists, I will go to one), are there any accommodating signs that warm of a sickness that I could look for?
