Its physical stress which induces "telogen efluvium"- since my hair has also been falling out these past three months i've beeing doing my home work.
I got food poisioning, lost about 8kg in a week then went on a 60km bike ride a week later- my body decided to make my hair fall out in protest...
I'm 22 and my biggest worry should be coordinating my outfit, not hiding the fact about 45% of my hairs decided to croke it!!
I've got a hat I wear- its either the hat, or I smash all the mirrors in the house. Since i'm renting, I decided the hats a better option.
They havent stopped falling out yet, but I have new little hairs at the front i'm thanking god for!!
Here's hoping this hell is over soon. I'm sick of crying.
