Stress is a cause of hair loss. So if you’re stressed, you’re not going to be relaxed. In that sense, they are related. As for the sensations you feel at your hairline, I’d guess it was probably anxiety. The fact that your hairline is asymmetrical indicates that the lower side will rise to the level […]

Low testosterone could lead to hair loss (because androgenic hair loss in men is due to the genetic predisposition not the hormone level), but I couldn’t say if that is the cause of your loss. Stress could also cause hair loss (if it is in a non pattern/ diffuse), and the stress could be brought […]
In general, Propecia takes about 6 to 12 months for one to see the effect. You can also continue to lose your existing hair while on Propecia, and one must remember that the medication is not a cure and it does work better in some patients (each patient is different). If you want to know […]
I cannot diagnose a bald spot without seeing you. In addition to stress, there could be many causes, such as a fungal infection, alopecia areata, etc… I recommend that you see a dermatologist to diagnose the scalp condition you have.
Add to your list: aging (senile alopecia), a deficiency of various vitamins (vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, beta-carotene, biotin, vitamin C, calcium, vitamin D, inositol, iodine, iron, magnesium, niacin, pantothenic acid, selenium, zinc), and a series of many autoimmune diseases. The list goes on and on.
I can’t suggest remedies if I don’t know the cause of your loss. It could be genetics, it could be stress, it could be medication related, it could be allergy, etc. You need to see a doctor to determine the reason for your hair loss. Once you know why, you can look into treating it.
So everyone is up to speed, the post from last month you’re referring to is here — Great Hairline, Thin Top and Crown, Low on Donor Hair This patient did not take Propecia (finasteride) over the period of time we worked with him. Many people who are satisfied with their transplant results don’t “officially” recognize […]
Alopecia is just a generic term for hair loss, so that doesn’t exactly pinpoint what is causing the loss. I honestly do not know how being in combat would contribute to hair loss for this long. If there is extreme stress, one can argue that could be causing the hair loss… but that would apply […]
Click the photo to enlarge. We generally think that men recede front to back and with the presentations of the Norwood classifications these seems to be the case; however, I do see people maintain strong frontal hairlines and lose hair behind it. This is why when we examine a patient we test for hair […]
Hair color change and texture change are not likely related to dieting, but perhaps your hair loss was “triggered” by the extreme dieting (a common condition). I can’t explain the reason for the wiry, black hairs that you’re describing. It is a little odd, and I’m sorry to say that I don’t have any further […]
This does sound like telogen effluvium, since the shedding started after your stress from the inflammation, pain, and subsequent insomnia. I would hope that if you started dutasteride, you’re already under the care of a doctor that prescribed it to you… but if not, you need to see your doctor for an examination.
You really should see a good doctor and find out what is happening. Stress can cause hair loss, but shedding 20 hairs is within the range of the 100 or so hairs anyone might lose per day as new hair grows in (the regular cycling of hair).
The method of harvesting is not an issue in women who keep reasonably long hair. The cost differential might make a difference if you go the transplant route (FUT/strip will cost less per graft than FUE). Each technique has various pros and cons that we’ve written about before. People who pull at their hair and […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Kate Hudson reveals she suffered hair loss and severe spot breakouts while pregnant with baby Hair loss in women following childbirth is usually temporary and can be common with the hormonal changes and stress.
Anything is possible, I suppose. He might be the unlucky one that has the balding gene, and his brothers were spared. Perhaps the rest of the family is taking medication and he isn’t. Maybe he does feel added stress, which has accelerated his genetic hair loss. There’s no way for me to know with absolute […]
