About 3 months ago my mother noticed that i had a patch of hair missing, she asked me if i was under any stress and at the time i really didn't feel stressed out but as time passed it grew bigger and stress did come along with it. Just by having this bald spot makes me worry and stress over it but i can't help it. It started off about the size of a quarter and now it is the size of two. Im not sure if it is caused because of stress or if it is caused by something else but when i wake up, on my pillow, is my hair and throughout the day it just keeps falling out . What should i do?

This could be as simple as a vitamin B deficiency, but PLEASE go to the doctor and have it checked.

You could have alopecia. You need to go to the doctor.
Hair falling out could be your body telling you that something is going on.
I will pray for you. I know it is hard to lose your hair, especially when you are young.

go see a dermatologist. It could be your thyroid, or stress (sometimes we have soooooo much going on that we don't even have time to notice we are stressed) it could be something new in your diet. I hope all works out for you

Too much vitamin a will cause you to loose your hair. I learned this the hard way myself.
