How can I tell if my recent hair loss is natural or a medication side effect?

Weird hairs on my head?

Gross Body Filter: I am female and have primarily straight brown, fairly fine hair. However, I frequently find these very curly, coarse black hairs growing on my scalp. (Dare I say pubic-like hairs?)
