Many women lose hair after going off BCP. Stress can make you lose hair. So can hyper or hypothyroidism. I have found taking biotin, a B vitamin daily, has helped my hair loss (from lupus). It is good you are having tests done to try to find a reason. Anemia and iron deficiency can cause hair loss too, so if that gets corrected, that should help, and yes your hair will most likely get back to normal.
