yazjaz,
First of all, if you are not eating a somewhat balanced diet every day, drinking milk alone with not change your hair loss. Hair loss can be the result of a poor diet over time, medications, stress, and illnesses. Have you been dealing with any of this? I would recommend that you see your doctor. Your hair loss could be due to a number of things. Good luck.

jazjaz,
Well, I believe you may have found the culprit. Stress! Stress can do many things to our bodies from rashes, stomache/head problems, and yes, hair loss. I remember some years ago my sister going through this. She had bald spots throughout her head, and thinning hair. Her hair loss was due to stress. She had begun a new job in a new city with new co-workers. Guess it was alot for her to deal with at that time. She began seeing a couselor at the recommendation of her doctor . Eventually it cleared up but did take some time. Talk to your mother about this. Maybe a counselor if stress is still an issue and a thorough check up; you do need to talk with your doctor again in case stress is not the cause. Keep us posted.

Stress caused me too loose hair at the age of 15:dizzy: Plus roaccutane medication for my acne. But i now use alot of calming techniques such as listining to stress relief cd's etc, and its worked wonders as hair is looking back to normal.:)

My hair loss came from stress and this was determined after many tests and nothing out of the ordinary could be found. I am using Rogaine, doing yoga and trying to keep calm. It took some doing, but at the moment I am not losing hair all over the place and much has grown back.
I would check with your doctor or dermatologist for testing and make sure you eat a healthy wel balanced diet.
