I’m Balding But I Can’t Find Any Hair Loss in My Family!

Just a quick question, I am 23 years old and no one in my family is bald, uncles,cousins, grandparents, everyone has a full head of hair, and it is from both sides of the family. I have noticed for the past few years I have been going bald and this past year I have a peak and Im loosing my hair really quickly. I have tried nioxin and svenson products nothing seems to work.

What would be the reason, they said i do have MPB but I dont know where it could come from. And I do know my Father is my Father, LOL.

Cheers thanks

Sometimes, the gene is carried by many generations and not expressed. In your case, it is being expressed.

I’ve not seen hair regrowth from Nioxin, and I don’t even know what Svenson products you’re talking about. It’s not surprising those haven’t worked to regrow your hair, though. There are only 2 FDA approved products to treat hair loss — minoxidil and finasteride. At 23 years old, you should see a doctor and ask him/her about a prescription for finasteride (Propecia). I’ve seen that medication work wonders in men your age (and in older men… though the earlier the hair loss, the better it tends to work).
