Brief Answer:
Stress and Nutrition are the two issues here

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX. Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic. Hair loss and hair thinning, skin changes and immune issues in your age group are normally due to 3 things

1) Poor nutrition / Vitamin deficiencies
2) Stress.. mental and physical
3) Lack of Sleep

You need to look into these three issues to see what is going on. We have good nutritionists here that can help you with a diet plan.

If the stress is the problem. We need to look into meditation and yoga, they help the most in younger patients.

Now, from a more medical perspective, if you hair is falling out in patches or your scalp is very itchy.. then you might have an infection or other skin issue causing the hair fall. This would need to be examined in person by a dermatologist.

Lastly, How much sleep are you getting on a daily basis? You may not believe this, but in your age group, the body need AT THE MINIMUM 7-8 hours of sleep DAILY! Are you getting this amount? If you are, then we will try and look more more in depth at these issues. If not, then i suggest you get to work rectifying these issues first as they will do you the most good.

I hope this helps,

Vinay

Let me know what is going on. I hope this helps
