Here are some of the possible medical reasons for excessive shedding.

Cushing’s disease
Addison’s disease
Hyperthyroidism
Hypothyroidism

Also some good infromation here:http://cats.lovetoknow.com/Feline_Hair_Loss to help you identify if it is medical or not, bloodwork is the only way to know for sure though.
No recent bloodwork. She is 2years old. She is currently eating Priority dry food
