Hair can also fall out due to many other factors such as e.g. taking certain medications, overcoming infections, thyroid dysfunction, surgery and post-operative conditions, increased fever, malnutrition, pregnancy or childbirth, taking birth control pills… Hair can fall out even within two to four months after a severe stressful event. This condition usually does not progress to complete baldness, although more severe hair loss may occur.
