Do I have DUPA (Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia)? (Photo)
i’d really appreciate if you could have a glance at these pictures taken with a microscope to confirm whether i have dupa hair loss/miniaturization. pardon the oily hair and hair fragments (recent haircut) :)
There are 9 slightly miniaturized hairs (arrows point to them) out of a total 50 hair count. This is not DUPA as it requires substantially more than 20% of the hairs. Also it is important that these miniaturized hairs are usually part of a follicular unit with at least 2 normal terminal hairs, so your donor hair count may be just dropping slightly, something I see as boys become men, or as men get older.
