    What is your current height and weight? And how many calories do you typically consume in a day?

    From looking at your profile and seeing that you've been on this site for less than two months and have already lost 41 lbs, there's a chance that you're restricting your calories too much to the point that your body isn't getting the nutrition it needs.

    I'm with the others who are advising you to see a doctor. Whatever the cause may be, you should get it resolved before it becomes a bigger problem.

    That happened to me when I went vegan/vegetarian for awhile and I suspect it was due to such a drop in protein. Went back on animal proteins and stopped losing hair

    Seriously now? Vegan/vegetarianism provides for plenty of protein. No need to eat animal proteins to ensure a protein-rich diet.
