two years ago my then 6 year old daughter suddenly lost a large amount of hair. this started on her crown and then underneath near her neck and slightly around the ears. her hair is quite thin. we have had a problem in the house with large areas of mold. is there any possible link with this to the hair loss as i seem to remember reading an article on something similar? we were not infected with head lice at the time, although the specialist that we saw did find a nit on her hair and diagnosed this as the reason for the hair loss, although i am not totally convinced. thank you for your time.
Mold can cause hair loss, and so can lice. You should find a doctor who you can trust and stick with him/her to solve the problem of diagnosis. Without examining your daughter’s scalp, I really can’t help much.
