A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be normal: Losing a few strands of hair during brushing and shower is normal . However if you are losing a lot of hair or bared you may need evaluation to rule medical illness .If no illness or skin condition. Rogaine (minoxidil) for women may help reduce further hair loss.
