Hi,
Regarding your concern, I would explain that there are many causes (metabolic, age, genetics, hormonal) which can lead to hair loss.
For this reason, I would recommend consulting with a dermatologist for a careful physical exam in order to determine the type of your skin and the possible underlying problem. Further tests may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
