Male or female: Sudden hair loss has different causes depending on if you are male/female. In males: genetics and chronic disease play a large role. In Females: weight changes, nutrition, hormones and age can cause hair loss. Treating underlying conditions and adjusting diet/nutrition can help. As can biotin supplements. See a Dr for hormonal changes/suspected chronic disease.
