detailed below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello ,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

I read carefully your query and i can understand your concern about this.

You need to know that a wide range of conditions can can cause hair loss. Common causes include extreme stress, chronic or acute illness , surgery, Sudden onset weight loss, menopause while
other possible causes can be anemia,thyroid disorders, Polycystic ovary syndrome , several skin disorders ,vitamin D deficiency
If your hair are falling out recently without any obvious cause (medication,stress,physical trauma or something else) you may need to consult a dermatologist. A detailed medical history and physical examination is necessary.

You may need to do some tests to exclude some common causes like:
-Complete blood count
-Thyroid function tests
-Vit D levels
If all these tests are normal and physical examination is normal ,then it might be just a temporary hair loss(physiological process).

You need to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation.It is very important to determine the cause of your hair loss for the treatment. You can also upload a picture of the area so that it can give a clearer picture of the pattern of hair loss.

Hope it helps.
Let me know if you have any question.

Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena Murati
