Tough one: I don't know the book to refer to, bot many diiferrent problems can interfere with hair growth. Fist chech and see if the root is attached to the hair . If not the are breaking. High androgen levels, thyroid problem and familial hair patterns can come i yo play. Check the hormone levels see a derm to examine you scalp and try treating the problems separately. Have you wig checked.
