A word of warning. Many adverts for analysis of hair are a waste of money. I paid for my brother's hair to be tested, as he suffers from skin problems. They sent back a list two pages long in very small type saying he was allergic to practically everything on the planet. Too much info can be as useless as none at all. To get it done properly would probably cost a few hundred pounds.

Blood can be tested for almost anything, so you would have to ask your GP what has been tested and if there are any other tests that can be done. A haematocrit is a picture of the blood cells and fluid to detect any abnormalities. I don't think you are grasping at straws. Everything happens for a reason. Something is causing your hair to fall out. It is just a question of finding out what.
