What Causes Persistent Hair Loss While Suffering From IBS?

I have been losing hair for the past five years. I once had very thick hair and it s now pretty thin. The hair loss is not in a specific spot just all over the scalp. The only medication I have been on is low ogestrel birth control. My family doctor and dermatologist see nothing wrong.My only health problem is IBS-C and I have seen quite a bit of blood in my stool this past year. Any ideas on what could be causing the hair loss and how I can stop it?
