What causes hairloss in pubescent females?

Amy asked:


I’m currently eighteen and I feel like if I continue losing hair at a constant rate, I’ll be bald by my twentieth birthday. It perplexes me. I used to have the thickest head of hair I had ever seen, and now I have average to thin hair. I’ve talked to a number of girls who have told me the same thing happened to them when they went through puberty.
What are, if any, the chemicals/horomones responsible for this madness?

      There are ton of reasons from stress to hormones to thyroid problems. Some of them are rather serious and you should see your doctor to get checked out.

      Check with your doctor.There is a disease called alopecia that causes loss of hair and/or thinning hair.
