Hi... It seems that you may be having a condition known as halogen effluvium. I would like to say few things about halogen effluvium. It is a condition in which the hairs fall in halogen stage of hair cycle. The causes may be many like. ...tension, anxiety, thyroid diseases, endocrine diseases, hormonal diseases, diseases like typhoid, malaria, viral diseases, surgery,trauma, Chat Doctor. .methotrexate, internal diseases, anaemia, nutritional deficiencies..... etc. might precipitate the disease. Excessive sun exposure may be responsible for the disease. Dan
