Lifestyle: Congrats on developing a healthy lifestyle. The weigh and facial suggest a possible hormonal imbalance. Please see your doctor to have that checked out. Also, ask him/her about the ketogenic food plan. That's high good fat and low carb. Peace and good health.

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?
