Specializes in Pediatrics

Maturity: Everyone ages differently. Don't worry about looking younger than you are. You'll be glad of it when your 50! With your history of anorexia; you may still have some body image issues. If this bothers you a lot, maybe see a therapist.

I'm a 45 year old woman, in good health. Over the past month or so, I've been losing a lot more hair than normal - equally from all areas of my head. I am definitely under chronic stress from all the changes that are still going on, working from home with 2 small kids, etc. Could this be due to stress or should I be worried? I have been losing more hair than normal, should I be worried?
