Is it normal for a girl teen to lose alot of hair after showering?

After I shower, I always have hairs that come out. Whether its when I'm combing my hair, or while it's air drying, they fall out. I get very frustrated and I don't know what to do! I hate the idea of being bald, even though I know it's not that bad. I just hate having semi-thin hair. Im also in alot of sports and when I pull out my hair elastic, theres always a couple hairs on it. It just bugs me. Am I freaking out, or is there normality to my problem?

Is it normal for a girl teen to lose alot of hair after showering?

As a teen, I lost a lot of hair too, whether it be after a shower or just brushing my it. I went to the Dr, because it was making me crazy too. It was suggested that "normal teenage stress" was the cause, it happened into my early to mid 20's, so I went back to the Dr., at that time, I was told, it was the stress of my kids. Not true, although, it could have contributed to it. The reason was my thyroid, I have hypothyroidism. It's something you should have specifically checked. It's a test all of its own, just tell your Dr. that you want your "tsh" level checked. It shouldn't be any higher than 5, mine was 76. I was immediatley put on synthroid for this problem and have since then stopped losing my hair. ( now it's just turning gray, I do blame that one on my kids and hubby--- lol ). You should have this checked, it's better to be safe than sorry. It can be a dangerous thing without knowing it and hair loss is one of the signs of it. Of course there could also be lots of other reasons. Just be safe and find out. Good luck to you and God bless.

This is normal. Maybe you're getting lots of stress but losing hair is common. Everyone loses hair. A healthy person loses 30 strands of hair a day on average. I think you are fine, but if big clumps of hair fall out, I suggest seeing a doctor but few strands on hair elastics? I think you're fine.

I have always lost a lot of hairs daily and so far, i am not close to being bald. I am in my mid thirties and remember being a teen and seeing the drain filled with hair and totally freaking! I try to wear clips most days lately so I dont have as much breakage as you would with a elastic hairband (and when i do i always use the good ones that are material covered) and dont sleep with your hair up in anything. hope this helps. if you are really concerned, ask your dr. but i know you are not alone in this one!

i used to think the same thing. hair falls out in the shower all the time and also when i brush my hair. for some reason as i got older my hair got thinner and theres not as much of it but still a normal amount. its completely normal. i used to be worried too but its fine. this problem occured with my best friend too because i went to her for help and she said she went throught the same thing and we both still have a full head of hair =) loosing some hair in hair ties is also normal.

Is it normal for a girl teen to lose alot of hair after showering?

It is normal to lose up to a hundred hairs a day. But if you're losing 100 hairs every time you brush, it's excessive.

In women, excessive hair loss can be due to stress and hormone fluctuations. You may be noticing more hair loss as you near ovulation and or your menstruation.

Next time, count the hairs. I bet it's not as bad as you think but if it is, go see your doctor, your hair is trying to tell you something.
