Don't panic yet! I had some extensive hair loss in October/November. I was low-carbing since July. After doing a lot of research on the Internet (entered "hair losss in women"), I discovered it was in fact diet related. The bottom line was that after several months on any diet - even the high protein ones - your body suddenly discovers that you are dieting & goes into a temporary shock of sorts. My hair loss as slowed down considerably since then. Pretty much back to "normal". If you are really concerned, consider seeing your doctor and have your blood work done. That will calm your fears - at least it calmed my fears, since that is the route I took in late November. Keep smiling Cheryl
