Everyday I lose fists full of hair. When I rinse and lather in the shower I can no joke take almost a full fist full of hair out. and not only once but two or three times in the span of a twenty minute shower. And everywhere I go I leave a trail of hair. Its disgusting. I think that its probably caused by stress but I'm not sure if there are any other reasons I'd be losing so much. Does anyone have any idea as to why and what I can do to prevent it?

Well if you are doing NBE I think that could be the problem. I am on the pill (Diane35), and one of the possible symptoms is hair loss.
I may be wrong, but I believe it is related to an increase in estrogen levels.

Hi,
There are a lot of reasons for hair loss. If you've been on a strickt diet about 3-6 months ago, this would cause hair loss months afterwards because of the hair not having got enough nutrition during the diet.
Other reasons are again not enough of vitamins and protein for the hair. Too much stress. The latter one is usually combined with the bad nutrition. And yes, to some women BE herbs with phytoestrogens cause hair problems. Change in hormone levels can cause changes in the volume and/or texture of the hair. Same can happen during menopause.
I'd suggest first checking your nutrition and temporarily adding extra protein in your diet, a good multivitamin with iron, zink and magnesium. If this doesn't stop it within a few months, the contact a doctor.
Hope this helps. Satu
