Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Your hair loss could be from nutritional deficiency secondary to apetite loss. The cause for loss of apetite should be searched. For that investigate with serum TSH estimation first to rule out thyroid disorder. Anxiety and depression also has to be ruled out for further work up. Apetite stimulator drug can be prescribed If needed. I suggest you to consult physician for examination.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
