I'm having excessive hair loss for the past 2 weeks. Everytime I comb my hair I lose around 50-100 strands or even more. What could the possible reason be? The hairloss is increasing day by day. Period cycle is normal.

Hi. Have you got your thyroid levels and hemoglobin levels checked? These are commonly implicated causes of hair fall in women of your age. Please see a dermatologist. If tests are normal, then alternative causes need to be looked into. Take care
