See an endocrinologist ASAP. If you still have acne and unexplained weight gain this could be hormonal. Did the doctor even run some tests or did he just 'poo-poo' your concerns?

Do you pull your hair back in a tight ponytail? That can cause "traction alopecia" in women. That means it can cause your hair to fall out, basically.

Stress and hormones can also affect hair loss, especially in women. Eating disorders, such as Anorexia and Bulimia, can also cause hair thinning and loss. Hair loss caused by one of these disorders is much more common in women than men. Life-threatening conditions can occur when the body isn閳ユ獩 getting the protein, vitamins, and minerals it needs to sustain itself.

Women have a number of cosmetic options to can make their hair appear fuller. Many women use a perm as a very effective way to conceal thinning hair. Using curlers on long hair can also hide hair loss. Women have many more options than men when it comes to hair styles that give the appearance of thicker hair. Thickening shampoos can provide some benefit. Spray on concealers can vastly improve the appearance of thinning hair.

The only thing that I can really suggest is make sure you're eating a well balanced diet. Take a multi vitamin every day. Certian vitamins and minerals are used in your body to promote healthy hair/skin. My mother went to a health food store and they had vitamins SPECIFICALLY for hair.

Also, stress can be a very big factor in hair loss. Try to de-stress your body. Perhaps you can go for an hour massage once a month (if your financial situation allows it, they're only about 80 dollars average an hour).... and they really do wonders for your whole body, mentally and physically.

Try not to use too many hair products. Many of them kill your hair and WILL cause it to be very brittle/fragile etc...be sure to condition your hair. And hot hair dryers and straightners arent great either.

Good luck with this.
