I understand that there is no way in knowing, but I was wondering if anyone has any more insight.
I started taking the pill about three years ago, with no issues. I recently have switched to the Depo shot, and have had three injections thus far.
I also recently have moved to college, which has been an extremely stressful environment.
I ALSO am very thin and prone to vitamin inefficiencies.
About two weeks ago, I noticed that I've started to lose a lot of hair. Much more than usual. I can run my fingers through my hair and pull out maybe 7-15 hairs at any given point in time. Showering is just painful now because I have to see just how much hair is going down the drain. It's everywhere! All over all of my clothes, clogging up drains and my vacuum cleaner. I emailed my hair dresser, and she said that it's a hormonal change that all girls go through around 18 years of age, some just are more affected. Also she said that I would notice new growth around the hair line, which is true. I have tons of short baby hairs growing in all around my face.
So my question is this, do you feel like it is more likely that I am stressed, experiencing a natural hormonal change, or experiencing depo induced alopecia? I really like depo, it's easy, so I don't want to go back on the pill if it's more likely that I'm just not handling my stress well or have been a little malnourished since I haven't been eating well at school.
PS- I recently have started taking three different multi-vitamins a day. Twice daily standard multi, twice daily iron, and twice daily hair skin and nails with biotin. No changes as of yet.
HELP! I love my hair too much to see it all on the floor :(

All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome when using Depo-Provera Injectable Suspension: Go check it out.
So why are you taking it?
Find the 'causes' before you find 'solutions', because it could DO MORE HARM than good.
Reasons why that might have happened, below is a short form of why.
1. During the last 3 years, OK 2, how have you been styling or have you been straightening & dyeing or highlighting your hair?
Google FDA website Hair dye & relaxers. Those are 75% the reason why.
2. Have you been taking supplements or using hair oil? Supplements ($42 billions are wasted and could hurt your lungs, liver, organs even HAIR LOSS). FDA has found that from face creams to soaps and other items of personal care, cosmetics companies are taking the general public for a ride. Oil could be coming from eels or shark. Another 5% why. CNN, Slate, Consumer Reports, MSN, YAHOO have posted them online for years how people spend $20 billion per year on vitamins and supplements. According to Everyday Health, here's an article that will tell you why . . . those PRODUCTS by any other name do NOT WORK. It is false advertisements. Google: Are Supplements Good For You? About 3,350,000,000 results results (0.13 seconds). Google: Are vitamins & supplements good for you? About 230,000,000 results (0.14 seconds) Some can actually shorten your life! The Food & Drug do not approve of them!
3. Have you been stressed out or changed your diet? Genetics of balding runs in your family? Another 10% why.
4. Have you been taking medications with testosterone, certain antidepressants, menopause, anti-acne? Even birth control pills can cause hair loss. The medication most often prescribed for thyroid disorders can actually cause hair loss. Another 10% why you have hair falls.
Eliminate the cause and your hair will improve.
5. Google "Boise teen goes on Today Show to talk about losing her hair." She's got Alopecia, 100% why you have hair loss.
Dove hairfall facts:
1. Humidity makes hair dry and brittle, leading to hairfall
2. Colouring the hair damages the hair strands leading to breakage
3. Pollution is also an unseen killer of healthy hair
4. Tangled hair is the most common reason for hair fall
5. While shampooing cleanses your hair, regular conditioning is required for adequate moisturization. Regular use of conditioner post shampoo also solves the problem of entangling which is the major cause of hairfall.
For women: A simple blood test can reveal the root of the problem. Unfortunately, those who do see a physician right away make the mistake of going to a dermatologist rather than their primary care physician. Most dermatologists will review the physical signs of hair loss and diagnose it as female pattern baldness. Your primary care physician will run tests to diagnose the problem so you can take steps to correct it.
Eliminate cause and your hair will improve. Not overnight, it could take weeks, months, even years, since it took that long to start the hair loss.
If you think they're from your beauty or hair products:
Take it back to where you bought it.
Stop using it ASAP.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs & cosmetics to the FDA. Visit the FDA MedWatch website or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
Google: Glossary of Hair Loss Terms. There are 179 entries in this glossary. Stress is just one of the 179 listed.
Again, a simple rule of thumb: Look for the American Hair Loss Association seal when considering purchasing any product or service to treat your hair loss.
