Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Hair Loss: Vitamins are not the answer, even though supplements and nutrition can benefit us when used properly for other things. A 28 y.o. female would do well to consult a dermatologist. You MAY have a condition called Alopecia. Your family doctor can refer you. Peace and good health.
