Question

Asked for Female, 27 Years

Hi, i am 27 year old female.noticed sudden hair shedding (though not much) but hair thinning a lot from last 2 months. No vitamin ,iron deficiency.normal thyroid levels. What could be sudden cause of such thinning specially over top and sides of scalp? Is there could be some internal medical issue apart from deficiency and thyroid i need to do test for? I have read about female pattern hair loss but that seems to have gradual thinning over years not this sudden. Could someone please advice?
