What kinds of illnesses cause hair loss? i am 38 f. i do have fatty liver from being obese and habe lost 35 lbs.

Any change: Actually any change in your body, even a good change like weight loss, can cause a temporary increase in the normal rate of hairs falling out. But this is a short phase, and when the hairs grow back, your hair will be as full as ever.
