Where is the hair loss ? sometimes Thyroid problems can cause hair loss problems ! ? !

Welcome! :wave:

Fizzy's way cool mum is right about thyroid problems but it could also be a skin reaction to something else - allergies, heat, etc.

Is she scratching? If so, an oatmeal based shampoo and bath might be in order.

Good luck!

Has she any sore spots or dry skin ? or is it just hair loss ?

 

[chimom]

There are many things that can cause hair loss. Are the areas itchy and flaky? Does she scratch a lot? If so, it can be related to a thyroid problem. It could also indicate fleas or some type of mange. I would recommend you have your vet check this. Whatever the cause, I doubt it will go away on its' own.

This is a definent "needs to see the vet" problem.
