Why do you sometimes lose hand size?
I never understood this. Sometimes my hand size is tiny and I have no idea why

The Manacle reduces your hand size by one for the boss blind only.

Ouija as well as Ectoplasm spectral cards will reduce your hand size permanently, Ouija by 1, Ectoplasm by 1 then 2 then 3 and so on.

Stuntman and Merry Andy will reduce your hand size (by 2 respective 1) as long as you hold them.
The simple answer is whenever you pick something that reads "- hand size" or it says anything about reduced hand size on screen/jokers, you are rewarded with a smaller hand size. Negative spectral is so strong the downside scales like crazy already when picking it only twice.

I just played it again and lost hand size. I don't get it man, I cannot identify what the cause of this is.

This is the only thing in this game I don't understand, I look at all my jokers, I look at the boss blinds and I have no clue why my hand size gets tinier

Read.

Maybe the replies you already gotten, maybe the cards you encounter/use. Maybe both.

All you are saying is "It's something" so a useless comment

No. I said it's something that you haven't bothered to read yet, that others have pointed at. Very different.

Okay, serious question, are you playing the game in its English version? From this thread I get that you possibly understand English, some bad translations and swapped card texts have been reported in other languages, even if I did not try them.

So switch the game to English.

Everything that reduces your hand size is explicit about it, there's no surprise there.

The replies you already got listed cards you use. Cards you use aren't listed anywhere afterwards, they're just used. Why would you think you would be able to "find" them?
Now apply those braincells and look at things before you use them. You were already explicitly told literally every thing that lowers handsize, in the very first reply you got.
