How can I stop my hair from falling out so much?

I'm only 17 and my hair falls out more than I believe it should. When I was younger, I had very thick hair, and I would love to have it back. If anyone has any tips, please let me know. Thank you very much for your time.

Answers:
You should discuss this with your doctor. Hair loss can be from a number of things. One cause could be anemia (low iron levels) due to poor nutrition. Teenagers are more prone to anemia due to their growing bodies. Also if you're a vegetarian, it's harder to get sufficient amounts of heme iron which is important for hair growth. Your best strategy is to see a doctor, have a complete blood test done (to test for anemia, etc.), and eat a balanced diet which includes lean red meat 2-3 times a week (heme iron), fresh vegetables (B-vitamins) and fruit.

Shedding is a sign your hair may need a trim or trimmed more often.Try using moisturizing shampoos that help from breakage, also vitamin deficiency.Speak to your md about it.
