Why hair falls out in women – common causes
There are 6 possible causes of hair loss in women. Let’s analyze each of them separately.
Thyroid gland
A fairly large number of Ukrainians have thyroid problems and do not know about them. Thyroid pathologies, such as hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism, can cause hair loss in certain areas.
In order to exclude this cause, it is necessary to take appropriate tests, for example, the well-known TSH.
Stress
Physical and emotional shock leading to stress can lead to temporary hair loss.
Also, stress and psychological disorders often affect the condition and amount of hair.
In order to improve this condition, you can try

Hair loss can be caused by taking medications. Among them may be:

- complete blood count
Most often, people with hair loss have deficiencies of
