More than likely a blockage, leak, or bad installation.
If some other showers, toilets, and sinks are having problems with running water then it's likely a problem with the entire water system, usually bad parts or a leak.

If water pressure is good everywhere else, and the recent pressure seems to have changed, probably cleaning your shower head filters.
If never had good pressure but do everywhere else, you may need a lees restrictive head or shower valve, or your piping may be corroded.
Pressure is not the same as volume.... Most people say pressure when they want volume. You can have the same pressure to take a shower that comes out of a squirt gun, or one that comes out of a fire hose... The difference is the volume of water that makes the biggest difference. The answers above are mostly volume related.

Well, if you take a shower with hot water, it should get worse, since a hotter temperature increases blood pressure....
Why when you turn on the hot water in the shower no water comes out at all the cold works fine but there is no water or pressure on the hot side?

What could be causing the water in the shower to be warm but not nearly as hot as the water in the shower in a newly constructed condo and how can it be disabled?
A stuck or worn balancing spool in a pressure balanced valve.
What would cause temperature and pressure fluctuation in the shower when no other water source is on?
My first thought is a leaky hot water line.
Why is there no hot water pressure in the shower?
The pressure of the water is defined by the weight of the water pushing down as a result of gravity. If you're hot water tank is full then the pressure will be high and the hot water will gush out, if there is little hot water then the pressure will be less.Also, if you live in a hard water area then the shower head might be clogged with limescale. Try cleaning your shower head if it is covered with a thin scale.WOW I never heard such nonsense1- If the shower head was clogged with scale then BOTH hot and cold would diminish 2- If the hot water tank was not full of water and had air in it the pressure would actually INCREASE as the water is heated as AIR can be compressed and water very slightly increasesEver take a balloon fill it with air and pop it?Now try it with water it plops openThe low water condition could be a washer blocking the orifice by the valve seatYour only condition is one fixture so the other persons advice is totally wrong
How do you fix shower hot water when toilet is flushed?
Run a new cold supply line from the source. This will drain less pressure from the the cold shower line.
How do you maintain pressure after installing a second shower head in your shower?
The piping has to be the exact same length for each shower head from the tee where the cold and hot water feeds from the top of the diverter faucet.

Open up the actual shower head and remove the factory fitted restrictor.
Why do you feel tierd after shower?
Because hot water can raise your blood pressure rapidly. Otherwise you'd be refreshed and energetic.
