I seem to be losing around 150 strands of hair each day (sometimes more and sometimes less if I don't wash my hair) ... I know it doesn't sound too much, but it seems as though my hair is thinner than it used to be, especially when I wear it in a ponytail, and I used to always experience very little hair loss. I'm 17, and my hair is now almost chest length. It always used to be thick but doesn't seem to be any longer.
I was previously taking the Microgynon 30 (UK) birth control pill, and switched to Dianette around two weeks ago. Does this sound like it could be a serious problem and should I go to see my doctor about it? If it is serious I would like to know so I can get it sorted out early on... I'm sure I can see a lot more of my scalp than I used to when I pull my hair back at the sides, and I always used to only experience very little hair loss. Now everytime I wash my hair there is a clump left in the plug.
I'm worried it's going to get progressively worse
Appreciate any replies
