After a Stressful Situation, My Hairline Has Receded
Dear Balding Blog,
I recently went through a very stressful experience and now 1 month later, I noticed that my hairline has matured or possibly receded around the temple areas. There are many factors I have considered (stress, wearing my hair in a side part, maturation of the hairline), do you think I should begin to take action and see a doctor?
Without knowing how old you are or any of your medical or family history, it would be impossible for me to say what you might be experiencing. So yes, if you’re concerned you should see a doctor for an in-person examination to help determine what is causing you recent loss. At the very least, you should get your stress under control.
Assuming you are not genetically predisposed to MPB, will hair lost from stress grow back?
John, while I am not a medical professional, I believe that as long as you can get rid of the stress, then hair should regrow as long as you haven’t been stressed so long that those hairs have completely died.
