Hair is falling out Options

[Mommy]

Hey, anybody know what diseases/vitamin deficiencies/ etc. can be causing my hair to fall out? The past 2 months has been ridiculous. I'm not getting a receding hairline or bald spots or anything and hairloss does not run in my family, so it's nothing like that. My hair is just falling out. I can run my fingers through my hair and a handfull of hair will be in my hand. When I wash my hair, I'm just pulling out clumps of hair. My hair feels noticeably thinner to me, but nobody else notices because I have thick hair. I find hair ALL OVER THE HOUSE. I mean, it's everywhere. What is wrong with me?

Hmm... I think the shaved head look on females is kinda cool. Demi Moore in GI Jane. or better yet Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta. However, my hairloss isn't a genetic problem or anything. I think it's some sort of vitamin deficiency. Also, my hair is very "bendy"... like it just curls up in one or two spots on each strand and sometimes at a right angle. I don't know why it would do that. I have heard of hair doing weird things during pregnancy, and my hair was quite difficult during pregnancy. I know those things can be permanent, but what is happening now didn't happen when I was pregnant. Also, my scalp is incredibly sensitive. Not to give too much information, but I usually like my hair pulled, but I can't even stand someone touching my hair now. It just hurts.
