Excessive Hair Loss - 24F?

Hello all, I am a 24 female, fairly good health, I eat healthy and excersize on a regular basis. I have noticed over the last few months that I am losing a lot of hair (hand fulls). I have very thick hair to begin with, and you cannot see that I am losing this much hair, but it's now at the point where I am having to vacuum the bathroom everytime I blowdry my hair, and have to clean the drain because I lose clumps of hair with washing. I have also noticed my once strong and beautiful nails are now yucky and brittle, breaking and cracking. I also feel sick to my stomach a lot and have a limited appetite, I am not pregnant (and yes I know for sure), does anyone have any ideas on what would be causing this hair loss? Thank you to all with serious, appropriate answers.

I found lots of good information here.

that could be a myriad of things. you need to see a doctor ASAP.

go see your doctor urgently, does`nt sound too good!!!! goodluck

You need to see a doctor right away. You may specifically want to check for iron and B12 deficiency. Also look at calcium for nails, do you eat dairy products? Good luck

You need to go see your doctor and tell him/her every symptom you have. It could be a variety of things.
