A link between low levels of iron and female hair loss. If there aren’t enough amino acids available to build and repair all body proteins, the hair or nails
are the first to go! Also if stomach acid is low, most minerals (including iron) aren’t adequately separated. low stomach acid could be the problem.
Have your stomach function tested.
Some girls have thick hair and some girls have thin hair. It's genetic, meaning it is what you are born with. It's like some girls have curly hair and some have straight hair. I have thin hair and no matter what I eat, I will still have thin hair. Don't worry, lots of people like thin hair and think it looks beautiful. There are special shampoos for thin hair, I would ask your Mom which shampoo is best for your "thin" hair type. For conditioner, I only use a very very small amount otherwise my thin hair looks flatter. You Mom will know about conditioner, too. Or you could look it up in Google or Youtube. Here's a website on how to take car of thin hair. Sometimes it's called fine hair.

I don't think you need to see a doctor. You are not sick, you just have fine thin hair like millions of girls.
thanx for helping me out. But my mother don't like to use conditioners,
i have heard about olive oil . is it good for thin hairs. My hairs are not only thin rather they are weak at sometimes and sometimes they are strong enough.
That's interesting, maybe your Mom doesn't like conditioners because she has thin hair, too. Most days, I don't use conditioner. I have tried the olive oil treatment with a plastic bag and towel to heat it up, works well but it takes a while to get the hair clean afterwards!!! Have fun with your hair! One thing I did when I got older was to dye my hair, it has the effect of thickening the hair shaft. I also use a shampoo with Biotin in it. Here's the brand, I don't know if you can get it where you live
Avalon Organics, Biotin B-Complex Therapy Thickening Shampoo, 14 fl oz (414 ml)
This is where I order my shampoo from, maybe they will deliver to your country. I have a $5 off coupon the first time you order, if you would like, the code is DEX579. I like the site because you get to pick out something for free everytime you order! I've tried lots of different shampoos and this one works the best for thickening the hair without any harsh chemicals as it's organic. It's amazing stuff!
