Eyelashes, just like the hair on your scalp, grow and fall out naturally. But you don’t have anything to worry, as they regrow again over time. However, if you are losing too much eye lashes, it can be a symptom of a serious medical condition you need to take care of.
Eyelashes can fall out due to hypo/hyper thyroidism, Lupus, Blepharitis, Scleroderma and/or Alopecia areata. Loss of eye lashes can also be the result of chemotherapy, applying too much of make-up or using skin care products on your face that you are allergic to.
