There are a number of factors which have occurred in your life that could affect the hair loss you are experiencing at the moment. Stress can certainly accelerate the quantity of hair falling out every day, as can the effects of an operation. Any hair loss caused by the operation is of a temporary nature and will soon pass, as will that caused by any stress, as long as the stress is relatively short lived. Make sure that you are eating well and getting good exercise as this is an excellent way of reducing the detrimental effects of stress. As for coming off the Pill, this depends on which pill you were taking, if it was one with relatively high levels of Oestrogen then your hair can suffer for a period of time as your body adjusts to the new level of hormones. You could ask your GP if you are not aware of the oestrogen/progesterone levels. But please bear in mind that the hair loss caused by any of these factors is of a temporary nature and any hair lost will grow back.

Hi Tracey:
There are many causes of why your hair its going ginger - I have tried listing some of them:
a/ if you taking or had taken any medication within the last few months
b/ if you taking any vitamins particularly an iron supplement
c/ the product used could be out of date
d/ the peroxide could it lost the strength through age or even if it has been left open
e/ had not been develop for long enough
f/ you can have some build up in the hair like silicone or sunning
g/ some type or hormonal unbalance like period or pregnancy so body calories are different
h/ poor quality bleach has been used
I hope this helps

Hi Liam:
Well that is a difficult task. OK we would need to find out why your hair is thin, it could be genetically in that way then you have very little to do, also you need to know if your hair its falling out, then it could be stress, mechanical or if you could be taking any medicine. I would recommend you have your hair and hair follicles analysed. The best way for that is using a hair numeric analyzer. ...More >
