Hair Loss? Only 15?

I am sick right now and the illness started 3 days ago. I went to the doctor yesterday and he said it was a virus and gave me some medicine that starts with an A and comes in a little foldable and you take 2 pills the first day and then 1 a day for the next 4 days. I didnt shower those 3 days cause when you have a fever showers dont feel good. Today my head itched so I scratched it and notices 3 pieces of hair fall on the floor. I got my hands and ran them through my hair, not pulling just running them through and more fell out. After I took a shower even more was out.

Nobody in my family has or is bald, but is it because I'm sick?

That's not normal. You should go to a doctor if it doesn't improve. Good luck with that. ;)

i think its a side affect from the meds. if your hair keeps falling out after u stop taking ur meds. i would go back to the docter. also keep record of ur symtoms so when u go u know wat the problems and the days it happen. im sorry ur sick

get well soon!

well if you dont shower for a few days hairs do fall out, but thats just the weak hairs that fail at life, so dont worry :D

Hair loss is caused by many reasons such as malnutrition, illness, tension and other health problems.It is normal to shed some hair each day as part of a cycle of growing new hairs and loosing some. Badly damaged hair breaks at the scalp. Check out http://usefulinfo-hairloss.blogspot.com/ for more info.
