The general doctor I have seen said it was just stress, and superscribed antidepressants which I didn't take. Is it possible that stress could cause someone my age to lose this much hair, and if so should I bother with treatment? <strong><em>Dr. Bernstein:</em></strong> It is possible, but other causes should be ruled out first. Please look at the <a href="http://www.bernsteinmedical.com/hair-loss/women/causes/" rel="nofollow">Causes of Hair Loss in Women</a> page on our website to learn about other conditions than can cause diffuse hair loss. It would be best to see a dermatologist to determine what the cause of the hair loss is. If it turns out to be stress related, then your hair should eventually grow back.
