Eyebrow hairloss/itching

For the past few months, I've been losing a lot of eyebrow hair. In the beginning, it was only a few hairs which I thought was completely normal but I began to notice that as the months went by, I was losing a lot of hairs at the same time on both my eyebrows, every single day. Lately, my brows have also been itchy and the skin on my eyebrows have been so so flakey which leads to more hair loss. Some days are worse than others, but I don't think I've went a day without loosing at least one hair strand. It is starting to get very noticable, and there are gaps in my eyebrows where hairs used to grow and were fuller. My brows have never been perfectly full and thick, but they were for sure a lot thicker before this started to happen.The doctors took thyroid and vitamin bloodtests on me, and the thyroid test came out normal but it turns out I lack Vitamin D. Could this be the reason why I'm loosing eyebrow hairs? I'm also on accutane medication for my acne, but my problem started a couple months before I started accutane so I don't think it's what's causing my eyebrow hair loss. Can someone help me, I feel so helpless and insecure about my apperance and I feel like my hair loss is permanent.
