Bald Patch

Hello - am new to mumsnet, hope someone can help. Whilst drying my hair I have noticed a bald patch about the size on an old penny. Have had 3 children in 4 years, the last being 9 months ago so don't think it is related to the last pregnancy. Of course it could be stress related but I always seem to be stressed and have never lost hair before. Is it worth going to the doctors as I am not sure if they can do anything or should I wait and see if it sorts it self out?

9 months is not long, I reckon it could still be from the pregnancy. If you are worried get it checked xx
