What Causes Hair Fall?

Hi the last time i went to the doctor i had recently given birth and my hemoglobin levels were low like around 8 i believe before giving birth i was told it was low but i think it was slight like 11. Now when i am in the shower my hair keeps falling out and i have a lot of hair and this has never happened to me before. im super scared but my doctor is a family friend and she treats me like a child everytime i go to her. i just want to know what is going on.
