Please see Dr Kratzberg's answer to your other question (which is similar to this one). If you haven't already, you should be worked up by your doctor or a dermatologist to see if there is an underlying cause. Also, a full history would be important to look at any medications you might be on that are causing this. Stress is also one of the underlying causes but also could delay it getting better.

How do I stop my eyebrow hair loss? It was caused by using retinol cream which I stopped immediately after. Only my eyebrows have been falling for four months now. Is this telogen effluvium? Am I deficient in any vitamins? Any thyroid or iron issues?
