Hello!
Stress, weight loss are two of the common causes of unexplained weight loss. The causes of itching and hair loss could be any inflammatory disease, psoriasis, alopecia areata etc.An allergy to the lotions or creams used on the scalp can also cause these symptoms. Other causes of hair loss like hypothyroidism, anemia and medical diseases also need to be ruled out. Seek the opinion of a dermatologist. An external examination is essential for diagnosis.
