Fasting and Hair Loss

Hi Dr I hope u are well

I have very thin hair on the top and front of my scalp, Ive been taking only Propecia since Feb 2008. Over the past 4-5 weeks I noticed an increase of the thinning but I havent stopped Propecia or done anything wrong. The only change was that I have been on a fast from Jan to Feb I havent been eating anything for most days just a small meal in the afternoons. Could that have affected my hair in any way? it is the only thing that has changed in my lifestyle. What can I do to get it back?

Thanks

You are asking a very general question. It is possible that your hair loss has to do with your diet and fasting. Malnutrition can cause hair loss. I would see your doctor and consider eating a healthier diet.
