My hair is falling out! What do I do?

I'm a 17 year old girl and my hair is falling out, no lie. Whether I'm washing it, brushing it, or if i even run my hands through it on occasion, hair will just fall out. I shed on everyone and everything and it's making me really nervous. So far it just looks like it's thinning but I'm scared to death that I will go bald! I also participate in a heavy-contact sport called Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and sometimes my hair even gets pulled out in a match. Whether or not it gets pulled out, there are always stray hairs all over the mats whenever I train there. I don't know what to do. I eat well and I'm very healthy. I work out every day, and only a tough workout 3 times a week.

I was vacuuming the other day and I smelled a burning so I checked the spinny-things underneath, and it took me 20 minutes to untangle all of my hair from around them. When I got done, I condensed the wad and it was bigger than a soft ball. Help!

Alopecia is a clinical name for the loss of hair in 1 area. Bald spots appear. There is also a form of alopecia (universalis) that causes hair loss over the entire body. I have always lost a lot of hair, but it has never resulted in baldness. Alopecia affects both men and women. I would advise seeing a dermatologist to make sure that nothing untoward is taking place. If you are not seeing bald spots, it just may be that you lose a lot of hair. Try googling ;hair loss problems' and browsing through any relevant information that seems to fit your circumstances.
