Hi,

You have to rule out hyperthyroid by serum TSH estimation. If it comes normal than stress or anxiety indices hair fall and weight loss can be possible.

You can Consult a nearby psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and behavioral counseling.

Anti-anxiety medication like alprazolam or clonazepam also can be prescribed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
