Hi, You have to rule out hyperthyroid by serum TSH estimation. If it comes normal than stress or anxiety indices hair fall and weight loss can be possible. You can Consult a nearby psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and behavioral counseling. Anti-anxiety medication like alprazolam or clonazepam also can be prescribed. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
