Lifestyle therapy: The most concerning symptom is the hair loss which could be congenital, caused by medications/drug, or thyroid problems. Low folate (folic acid) is usually caused by inadequate intake (try broccoli, Brussels sprouts, asparagus), and elevated WBC is often associated with smoking. I don't see one diagnosis. Have a good check up and then focus on lifestyle: heathy eating, activity, sleep, stress management.
