Post hair breakage

I am 41 years old. My hair is getting thinner and thinner everyday. Everytime I wash my hair it breaks. Everytime I comb my hair it breaks and everytime I blow dry my hair it breaks. There is different links of my hair on the floor. No one seems to know why. Sometimes I think its falling out too. I've tried changing my diet and even taking vitamins. Can you help!

Hair loss can be caused my numerous different factors. Medications (birth control pills, etc.), nutritional deficiencies (iron deficient anemia), stress, and numerous other things. Have you talked to your physician about the hair loss?

Yes, droper I have talked to my physician and a dermetalogist. They said everything checks out fine. The doctor thought I might have a hormone embalance and put me on provera. Does that cause hair loss? I do drink a lot of pop and am trying to cut back.
Thank you.
