DEAR DR. GOTT: I have a problem that has become embarrassing for me. I am a healthy 43-year-old woman. I am within normal weight, have no medical problems, and take only a multivitamin and calcium supplement daily.
My problem is that my bangs have become very thin and I have a semi-bald spot at the top of that area. I also seem to be losing a lot of hair while showering.
