Hair is falling from all over the body. thyroid is ok. it isn't genetic. i am taking b12 shots and vitamin d and iron supplements. what is the reason?

Alopecia?: There is a condition called alopecia which causes the hair to fall out. This is different from male pattern baldness which is genetic and not a disorder. A dermatologist can tell you if you have Propecia (finasteride) (an autoimmune disorder) and treat it. Peace and good health.
