I've know 2 women who were experiencing what you've described and it turned out they had vitamin D deficiencies. Same thing happened to me last winter and spring. I seemed to be losing an unusual amount of hair when I washed it. I didn't think much about it, other than that it seemed a bit excessive. Then I met med dude & he had a routine blood lab done, which included a vitamin D check. Turned out I had a deficiency. I started taking 2000iu per day. The hair loss stopped within a week. I don't notice any hair loss now, so it must be a very small amount.
I take 2000iu a day. Should I take more? I will if it will stop this hair loss.
