and if it does happen (loose skin of the pussi -sorry to say it but its only to explain, please execuse me - ) what are the other factors that cause it? is it like age? or the type of genes ? or what?Can massive weight loss (100pounds,48kg) cause loose labia (and the skin where pubic hair grows) in females?
Yes, weight loss can cause it - it contains fat just like the rest of your body. Also age as well as child birth can change it.
There are surgical (cosmetic) procedures that can be done to correct it.Can massive weight loss (100pounds,48kg) cause loose labia (and the skin where pubic hair grows) in females?
I think age has a great deal to do with the elasticity retention of the skin.
Yes. That area gains fat when we're obese and then becomes deflated, so to speak, after massive weight loss.
Age is also a factor especially for people who have been overweight most of their lives. They've never seen their ';aging'; body, all they know is skin stretched tight from fat.
Congrats on your weight loss! You've been a big favor for your health, even if there are a couple disappointments.
You might enjoy reading the Success Stories at Kimkins. Even though you've already lost weight, it's still motivating to hear how others did it. They're regular people, just like you.

Having no luck finding cause(s) for hair loss on the back of my hands and part of my wrist?
Do you really want hair to grow there in the first place???Having no luck finding cause(s) for hair loss on the back of my hands and part of my wrist?
Some thyroid disorders can cause hair loss, your should check with your Dr.Having no luck finding cause(s) for hair loss on the back of my hands and part of my wrist?
maybe thats not such a bad thing in the first place
but if it really concerns you, then i'm sorry to hear it
i have no idea why you would lose hair there, haha your hands are balding
i have had the same problem and found while working outside if i used looser gloves it slowed down, during the summer with no gloves, it grows back. also long sleeves buttoned tightly around the wrists will do the same thing. medically, i have no answer for a condition that has isolated itself this way other than burns, either chemical or from heat sources

Whenever my gf and i argue and she gets mad, she pulls my hair pretty hard. Will that cause my hair loss?
This has happened more than once, and she pulls my hair pretty violently. I take it cuz i don't ever ever get physical with her, and i give her a hug after, but i'm afraid that this constant reaction of hers whenever she's angry will cause me to lose my hair. any help?Whenever my gf and i argue and she gets mad, she pulls my hair pretty hard. Will that cause my hair loss?
If you mean the hair on your head, nah, it won't. But it can give you a severe headache. Find a new girlfriend who is not psychoWhenever my gf and i argue and she gets mad, she pulls my hair pretty hard. Will that cause my hair loss?
You need to have your gf stop doing it. I do understand but she is crossing the line of disrespect by doing it. Don't get me wrong, she has a right to get angry, but she doesn't have the right to take it out on you. Far worst is going to happen to you other than the hair loss.
tell her to stop pulling your hair or you will leave.
lol well at lest she not pulling anything else no it cannot lead to your hair loss that is something with your body
This actually may result in loss of a girlfriend.
my first reaction was to tell you to pull her hair,lol. no seriously you should find someone else. i hate women that take advantage of men who arent going to strike back. i dont think it should cause hair loss as long as you are keeping it kind of short,but just to be on the safe side tell her to stop pulling your freaking hair :)
In a playful way on day pull hers like she pulls yours and if she doesn't like it tell her thats what you do to me and most likely she might stop.
I doubt that it will cause you any real hair loss. I do think you should re-examine your relationship. It is still physical abuse. Tell her to stop doing that...it is not the way that two people that are in love are supposed to act. If it continues leave, unless you want to stay in an abusive relationship. It only gets worse.

My dog has hair loss, itching, flaky skin and bad odor. what could be causing this?
he is a 12lb pekingese.My dog has hair loss, itching, flaky skin and bad odor. what could be causing this?
I bet anything he is allergic to his food. Corn and Wheat products are the most common causes of skin allergies, read the food label.
The skin is itchy, flakey and the dog scratches for some releif, but damages the skin so that infection can set in. The bad food has weakened his immune system so he can't fight the infection and now, you are looking at a very unhappy dog.
Read ';Food Pets Die For'; by Ann N. Martin if you don't believe me. You will be shocked and amazed.
You need to take him to the vet, he needs antibiotics to cure the skin, then you need to get him on a better food.
Iams, Purina, and Science Diet are all but poison to dogs, read the book if you don't believe me.
Look into Innova, California Natural, Wellness, Artemis, and Canidae. They are all natural and don't contain gross stuff that is making him sick. They are more expensive but it's worth it in the long run. Less vet bills and illness. He may also live longer.
Good LuckMy dog has hair loss, itching, flaky skin and bad odor. what could be causing this?
It could be eczema, ask for some advice from a vet.
It could be mange (demodetic, caused by mites). You really should take him to the vet.
My dog, which is a cocker spaniel mix has a problem very similar to this. However, I do not have the money for a vet. But I do have a friend who is a vet and she suggested giving her an over the counter vitamin (half a centrum) and two baths a week, always followed by putting triple antibiotic on her skin/fur. I also bought a funnel collar so she could not lick, chew or scratch. It's been a week and really seems to be helping.

go to the web address below. i used to work there. it is in dothan, alabama but u can speak to live veterenerans for free and tell them your problem. you can also order it today and it will be at your house within 5 business days.
they are not expensive either...give them a call!
tell them your problem
He probley has skin allergies. Try changing to a dog shampoo that help with all his problems. If that doesn't work ask a vet for some recommended treatments.
alot of things could be those which one of those things would be bad which is : Mange and one of them is catching to a human and i know this cause i got one yr and or time from a dog i had yrs ago and then i had to go to the doctor and get rid of it cause it made my hands itch alots which wasn't fun. Also could dry skin, also stress yes dogs can get stressed too just like us . Have you moved recently or are you moving or planning on moving ? Best advice i can give is TAKE YOU PET TO SEE A VET AND SOON.
Does he have fleas? He could have a skin allergy. I would consult a vet. My sister has a Pit Bull who has Flea Allergy Dermatitis or something like that and it caused itchy red skin that had bumps and there was a lot of hair loss. There are alot of different skin conditions that could cause these symptoms.
Consult a vet.

Funghi? he may need some simple medication (an ointment, spray or powder), ask the vet for details, because we can't give a proper diagnosis over the internet.
could be a skin disorder triggered by a food allergy. My dog had similar symptoms and we discovered she was allergic to the food we were feeding her (It contained Lamb). Use Nutro dog food!
my friends dog had this, and it was due to an allergy to chicken in her food. but ask your vet every dog is different
It could be a number of things. Allergies, hot spots, fleas, or mange. You should be able to get some kind of medicated shampoo from the vet.
my sisters boston terrior mix has the same thing. I can't remember what the name for it is, but it's a skin condition that you can go to your vet and get an medication for. Sometimes during a bad break out my sister uses a cone for the dog to prevent it from becoming worse.

What can cause diahrrea, cause hair to stop growing, and weight loss?
I have an 11 year old collie husky mix who has the following symptoms:
1. his hair has stopped growing. We get him shaved down and his hair no longer grows back.
2. he has lost a lot of weight in the past couple of years. Something like 15 pounds -- about 25% of his total weight. He is fed a cup of dry food with about 6 ounces of canned food with each meal and he eats approximately half to three quarters of that.
3. he occasionally has diarrhea. This might be associated with periods where he ate more than normal or there were small changes in his diet. For instance, around thanksgiving he was given a small amount of turkey in his meals for about a week, at the end of which he had a diarrhea episode.
Is there anything specific that could cause all of this? We are taking him to the vet, but am looking up potential causes on my own as well.What can cause diahrrea, cause hair to stop growing, and weight loss?
I'm no vet, but the symptoms you describe sounds eerily like someone I knew who was diagnosed with stomach cancer. Mentally, you have to prepare yourself for the possibility you're going to need to put him to sleep to ease his pain and sufferings.What can cause diahrrea, cause hair to stop growing, and weight loss?
Jenna J has the best answer I'd say. Good luck, and I hope whatever it is can be cured! Tell your doggie I hope he is okay!
maybe over or underactive thyroid, not sure about the diahrrea though
Sound like he has a thyriod condition. The diarrhea was caused from the turkey you gave him. He and so may have a cancer in the abdomen best bet is to take him to the vet and get a complete lab work up
The list of potential causes is long.
The vet will have some good ideas.
I would definitely attribute a lot of this to old age. Do speak with your vet, I'm sure he or she will have good feedback for you.
Cancer, diabetes, thyroid imbalances, cushing's disease, etc....
Only a vet can give you a proper diagnosis, good luck!
There is a rather long list of possible causes of digestive problems, which includes intestinal parasites, fungal infections, food intolerances, pancreatitis, loss of pancreatic function, malabsorption of food, bacterial growth in the intestines, colitis, polyps, cancer, thryoid dysfunction, among others. Some of these are related to each other.
When you take him to the vet, be sure to take in a stool sample so they can screen for parasites, and ask for a complete blood workup. It will cost a bit, but may save you some time and grief down the road.

Is there any cause,if we masturbate we get hair falling,b'coz, if masturbate we loss strenght and we loss hair
There is ABSOLUTELY NO CONNECTION whatsoever between hair loss and masturation.Is there any cause,if we masturbate we get hair falling,b'coz, if masturbate we loss strenght and we loss hair
WTF are you trying to say?Is there any cause,if we masturbate we get hair falling,b'coz, if masturbate we loss strenght and we loss hair
Okay, do you really think that masturbation expends more energy than actual sex, or a real workout, or construction work, or marathon running? And do you really think that all sex kittens, bodybuilders, road workers, and cross-country joggers are bald? Why would masturbation be the one exercise that causes hair loss?!
rightio
The same things happens when you masturbate as when you have sex. Your hair doesn't fall out when you have sex so it doesn't fall out when you masturbate.
no, that's nonsensebecca

What disease could cause severe hip pain, muscle weakness, hair and tooth loss, & light & heat sensitivity?
A friend has been ill for 4 years. No doctor can find a diagnosis. He has severe hip pain, muscle weakness, is in bed most of the time, walks with a cane and can not even sit up long enough to have a meal with his family. He has started loosing his hair and now his teeth are also loosing their enamel and breaking off. He is very sensitive to heat and light, his face is red and swelled up. Also has very high triglycerides(1400), and high blood pressure. He has mostly given up after around 20 doctors with abnormal test results but nothing exact. Any help would be greatly appreciated.What disease could cause severe hip pain, muscle weakness, hair and tooth loss, %26amp; light %26amp; heat sensitivity?
If he has seen 20 doctors and none of them can diagnosis, I can guarentee you no one on here is going to be able to diagnose him from your brief description...What disease could cause severe hip pain, muscle weakness, hair and tooth loss, %26amp; light %26amp; heat sensitivity?
This person should be evaluated for Cushing's Syndrome as he is showing classic symptoms of this disease. Many dr's are not well versed on this disease and it often goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for many years. Cushing's Syndrome is caused by too much of the hormone cortisol in the bloodstream.

What could cause a family & their pets to have itchy skin and hair loss? Water, Enviorment & what would it be?
We recently moved out of a state in the midwest and now on the west coast. Before we moved %26amp; was still living in a town in the midwest of about 15,000 very single one of us was developing rashes, itchy skin, hair loss %26amp; some of us (the humans) developed acne no matter what age. What could be causing such a thing? The water smelled horrible of chlorine in the morning time yet if it was that then wouldnt 15,000 people all complain? I thought it might have been the water when it was the animals who was losing the most of the hair because they took more into their bodies than us. We bought bottled water to drink but cooked with tap. Could it been the house?
We are just lost on what it could be. We are now on the west coast. Our skin has cleared up %26amp; every single one of our animals are growing their hair back (slowly but they are). Sores %26amp; acne are clearing up as well even on the animals. We are all..even the animals more alert if that is the word for it. Not as blah. What could it been?What could cause a family %26amp; their pets to have itchy skin and hair loss? Water, Enviorment %26amp; what would it be?

I dont think your hair loss is permanent but I would advise you to never crash diet or vomit up food again. Its a bad road and I'm glad you stopped. You should really visit this site: http://www.hairboutique.com/tips/tip943.
Also talk to your normal doctor and if your underage talk to your mom or dad. Hope this helps. good luck. :)

http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/health_adviceWill bulimia cause ur hair to thin on top and ur hair to get greasy? weight loss and dizzinous?
Yes, bulimia causes thin hair and can cause it to fall out. There was this girl at my school, back when I was in college, and she was obviously anorexic or whatever. Her hair was very thin and her cheeks were unnaturally sunken in, and she was extremely skinny. She looked terrible. I had a psychology class at the time and the professor mentioned this, she didn't name the girl she was talking about, but it was obvious to me.
Well, I'm glad you started eating healthier before it got out of control. I hate vomiting because it makes my stomach hurt too much.

Is DHT (dihydrotestosterone) , the actual cause of hair loss in both male and females?
I'm confused. On the internet, whilst doing some research i read that DHT also occurs in women. I thought only men experienced this. Is this the root of what causes hair loss ? is DHT always present and always the reason why someone will lose their hair?
this is an article i found
';DHT develops when testosterone is combined with ';5-alpha reductase';, an enzyme that is produced by the hair follicles. The mixture of the already-present testosterone and the new enzyme cause the hair follicles to begin shrinking. The Di-hydrostestosterone, or DHT, remains present on the scalp, causing the hair follicles to shrink more and more. Eventually, the follicles are unable to continue producing hair';

If this is the case then is a dht blocker able to prevent hair loss for life if used continuously? I'm a 22 year old female experiencing hair loss which has not resolved itself after the delivery of my son 2 years ago. Can i get a recommendation of a Natural and fairly cheap DHT blocker i can use to grow my hair and prevent future hair loss?Is DHT (dihydrotestosterone) , the actual cause of hair loss in both male and females?
The paragraph you quoted primarily refers to men. It also applies to women approaching their menopause.
women are more likely to suffer from thyroid problems,hair loss caused by birth control pills and stress induced hair loss.Especially if they are as young as you. these may ultimately lead to increased DHT but that does not mean DHT itself is the cause of your hair loss.
That article you linked to is misleading and playing with words. women do not lose hair in the same way as men and are more than likely to suffer from diffused hair loss, that is thinning all over the head. DHT is Not the main cause of hair loss in women.But that article says the main cause of baldness in women.How many women go bald? Anyway that whole article is a sales pitch aimed at a product so I would not pay too much attention to it..
I would work on finding the root cause of your hair loss.It could be a number of things.sometimes you can be under lots of stress without even knowing it.
you may be suffering from Telogen Effluvium which can be triggered by childbirth and can take long a time to clear up. Sometimes years.
Most hair loss supplements with DHT blockers are only for men.The only one that I know of that is for women and does actually work is provillus.
P.S DHT tests in women are inconclusive and not very reliable. The reason is because of the very low levels of DHT compared to men. Tests carried out on women can and do report DHT as being normal even though it is causing hair loss.Is DHT (dihydrotestosterone) , the actual cause of hair loss in both male and females?
There are many reasons for hair loss including hormone imbalance, stress etc....
it would probably be better to go to the doctor so they can determine the cause.I think they can do test whether DHT is the cause nowadays?becca

If this is the case then is a dht blocker able to prevent hair loss for life if used continuously? I'm a 22 year old female experiencing hair loss which has not resolved itself after the delivery of my son 2 years ago. Can i get a recommendation of a Natural and fairly cheap DHT blocker i can use to grow my hair and prevent future hair loss?Is DHT (dihydrotestosterone) , the actual cause of hair loss in both male and females?
The paragraph you quoted primarily refers to men. It also applies to women approaching their menopause.
women are more likely to suffer from thyroid problems,hair loss caused by birth control pills and stress induced hair loss.Especially if they are as young as you. these may ultimately lead to increased DHT but that does not mean DHT itself is the cause of your hair loss.
That article you linked to is misleading and playing with words. women do not lose hair in the same way as men and are more than likely to suffer from diffused hair loss, that is thinning all over the head. DHT is Not the main cause of hair loss in women.But that article says the main cause of baldness in women.How many women go bald? Anyway that whole article is a sales pitch aimed at a product so I would not pay too much attention to it..
I would work on finding the root cause of your hair loss.It could be a number of things.sometimes you can be under lots of stress without even knowing it.
you may be suffering from Telogen Effluvium which can be triggered by childbirth and can take long a time to clear up. Sometimes years.
Most hair loss supplements with DHT blockers are only for men.The only one that I know of that is for women and does actually work is provillus.
P.S DHT tests in women are inconclusive and not very reliable. The reason is because of the very low levels of DHT compared to men. Tests carried out on women can and do report DHT as being normal even though it is causing hair loss.Is DHT (dihydrotestosterone) , the actual cause of hair loss in both male and females?
There are many reasons for hair loss including hormone imbalance, stress etc....
it would probably be better to go to the doctor so they can determine the cause.I think they can do test whether DHT is the cause nowadays?
I think Dieting and cutting out oil is causing me to have a sore scalp and hair loss?
I went on a diet 6 months ago and I noticed a sore scalp and a lot of hair coming out in my brush about 3 months ago. At first I didn't think anything of it, but I am starting to get scared of my hair getting to thin. I asked around and talked to a few people and most people tell me that it is the lack of oil in my diet. I have been taking salmon fish oil capsules for about a week now and also adding extra virgin olive oil in my salads and I have been feeling really blotted. I would except the blotting if my hair stopped coming out. I also have been rubbing aloe vera gel on my hair, recommended by a hairdresser who's friend went through the same thing. I am eating good otherwise, I am just wondering if there is other advice, or if you have run into the same thing or know someone who has. I made an appointment with my doctor to see a specialist, but it usually takes time to get in to see one, so I thought I would ask yahoo answers from people who may have been through the same thing. Thank You.I think Dieting and cutting out oil is causing me to have a sore scalp and hair loss?
why did you diet and how,cos in most cases a lot of people starve them selves and then put the blame on (DIET) dieting is about eating a balance diet with all the nutrients and vitamins we need.the loss of your hair is caused by lack of nutrients and certain vitamins in your boby.you should consider this very serious as youll be going to see a doctor make sure you explain evrything to him especialy what you were eating during your diet.do not over worry cos you going to be okey
GOOD LUCK.I think Dieting and cutting out oil is causing me to have a sore scalp and hair loss?
You need more protein in your diet , add more chicken and give it 4 weeks and you will see the difference. Your hair will start to come back. You just shocked your system.

What could cause painful, lumpy spot on head with headaches, nausea, some hair loss and fatigue?
The area on my head is about 4-5 inches and mainly hurts if I press on it. It feels lumpy.
I usually don't get headaches or get nauseated so I thought it was from the Chantix I was taking although I took it 2 years ago and did not experience this much.
I'm not use to having long hair, so I blamed natural occurence and old age on the hair I lose daily.
I am extremely tired all the time......like when a woman is pregnant and just has to lay down and sleep. The doctor said it was normal to feel tired because of a breathing problem I have.
I plan to have this checked out asap but until then, anyone have any comments?What could cause painful, lumpy spot on head with headaches, nausea, some hair loss and fatigue?
I think it is best for you to have this checked out just to rule out a tumor.

What can cause the loss of hair on head of about the size of a half dollar and on chin?
It seems to only be one spot for now on the head but at one time it was on the chin and about the size of a quarter.What can cause the loss of hair on head of about the size of a half dollar and on chin?
Maybe whomever your talking about has alopecia or spot baldness. It's when a person loses their hair or loses their hair in spots. It usually occurs on the scalp, so you might not have it. Hopefully you don't because there's no cure.

By changing your lifestyle and using herbal remedies, you can reduce hair loss. More details available at http://tinyurl.com/py7z4 .I have epilepsy and take 2 different meds,but it is causing hair loss any help please?
My sister took all kinds of vitamins for nutrition. Just look at greay earth vitamin stores
One of my daughters has to take siezure medication and it really is a concern about hair loss so I am curious to see what responses you get My guess would be to make sure you are eating healthy meals and maybe increase foods with protein and calcium which I know you have to continually monitor liver function so protein would be questioanable. good luck
I'd say talk to your doctor. Be sure he knows what is going on. Hopefully, he will have some suggestions on how to counteract these side effects, or maybe he'll change your meds. Good luck.
Um... i really suggest you see your doctor...
advice from yahoo answers may not be the best or correct for your situation.
I do feel for you thou.

I have heard that putting vitiman E gel on the roots would stop the hair from falling out! Good Luck!:)

Im a surfer and have a tendency not to wash my hair after i surf. does ocean water cause hair loss?
not really, but if you don't use like a water treatment shampoo %26amp; conditiioner and you don't have to worry about anything..and if you don't do that..you won't have hair loss but your hair might end up having a greenish tint to it..that is what happened to me.
xDIm a surfer and have a tendency not to wash my hair after i surf. does ocean water cause hair loss?
It depends on your scalp but from my opinion i dont think it does It can iritate it though

What can cause adult acne, abnormal periods(2001,2005,2006) and hair loss in an young adult?
hair loss started at age 21(1999), heavy period started in the fall of 2001, and adult acne started around 2003. What is the mysterious diagnosis? thyroid is okay, slightly anemic, little overweight. hair is thick and long in the back and very thin in the front. doctors dont know nothing in NJ (have not met all of them)What can cause adult acne, abnormal periods(2001,2005,2006) and hair loss in an young adult?
Oh wow! That is sooo classic for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome!!!! Find yourself a good OB/Gyn and question it!!! PCOS causes all of those symptoms as well as infertility %26amp; ovarian cysts (you may not know you have them). I have it and they first tested me for thyroid too, which of course is perfectly normal. It wasn't untill I tried to get pregnant I was diagnosed with PCOS. You can get some more information at Soulcysters.com, but definately see a gynocologist.
They will probably put you on some combination therapy including Glucopghage (a diabetic medication).Personally I would recommend ProActive for your acne, kindof expensive, but worth it! And Some of the doctors I have talked to said unofficially a low carb diet can help too, which I have tried and had good success with. I like the Carbohydrate Addicts Diet. Send me a message if you have any questions!!!

Hi,
Maybe this article could help:
Female Pattern Hair Loss It Depends On The Genes
http://female-pattern-hair-loss-help.blogspot.com/
You have a cellular dysfunction and a hormone imbalance.
It can be corrected with glyconutrients.
Info on my page.
Have them check you out for a condition called ';PolyCystic Ovarian Syndrome';... the symptoms sound similar to yours and they can threaten your ability to reproduce. You could also look it up on the internet to see if you have any other symptoms that you havent listed. I myself was diagnosed with PCOS and well... sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Good Luck
I have similar issues started at 25, now in my 40's. I was told the anemia is from the heavy periods. The hair loss from not enough calcium and the adult acne from hormonal changes. Supposedly getting on the pill will shorten your period and make it lighter. The pill may also help with the acne. I chose to take calcium and iron supplements rather than the pill. It has helped. I still struggle with adult acne, and my bloodwork says I'm anemic every time.
The other thing with your hair- if it is really long and you keep it pulled back it will thin in the front from the tension/weight of hair.lip liner

What could be the cause of sharp cramps and hair loss in a 22 year old?
I have been experiencing really sharp cramps in my abdomen for about 3 days now. At first, I blamed it on the fact that my boyfriend and I had really rough sex the night before. Could it be that he ';disturbed'; something up there, and that the cramps will subside? They were very bad the first day, but seem to be dying down as each day passes.
Also, I am experiencing very strange hair loss. I am only 22 years of age. It begins as a small patch but grows larger. I have scheduled a doctors apt for that, but he's booked up for a few more weeks.
I've previously had a partner who cheated on me on a continuous basis, but lied about ever having actual sex with the girls. Is that something I should be concerned with now? Such as an STD related to the hair loss?What could be the cause of sharp cramps and hair loss in a 22 year old?
Sounds more like acute stress problems and possibly the start of an ulcer. Jackie Kennedy's cousin went bald over stress.

What is causing my brittle nails and hair loss?
Today when I was brushing my hair I noticed several strands of hair came out. Then, I trimmed my nails and many of them split and cracked while I was cutting them. What could this be caused by? I am recovering from the flu. For about 3 days I ate very, very little, but I have eaten a pretty balanced diet today and yesterday. Is this because of the flu and my lack of nutrition over the past few days, or should I be worried?What is causing my brittle nails and hair loss?
It is normal to lose up to 200 strands (some people more) of hair per day. Do you have other symptoms? Like bowel irregularities, fatigue, hot/cold intolerance? If so, you may need to have your thyroid level checked. If not, then your nails may just be suffering the drying effects of winter. Ask you doctor if you are concerned.
Best of luckWhat is causing my brittle nails and hair loss?
Have you been throwing up a lot? Usually people with eating disorders like bulimia or anorexia have hair loss and brittle nails. If you've been sick lately, I wouldn't worry about it, just make sure to take plenty of vitamins and eat a healthy diet in the future.
you probably just haven't eaten enough for the past couple of days. Getting back to your natural diet should help. I hope you feel better and know that if it continues it maybe something else. I wouldn't worry too much tho.
you can buy gelatin tablets that help your nails get stronger- they are in drugstores, or walmart- everywhere.
You're not getting enough calcium and protein. Try drinking more milk (skim is fine), and eating more meat!
eat more protein and calcium
