Doubtful… but if you attract too many women, you might lose more hair with the stress that it induces. Yes, I’m kidding.

Hair loss, when it occurs, is often not symmetrical. If you’re seeing the left side of the hairline creep higher than the right, there’s nothing unusual about it. There are no activities that should cause hair loss. Unless you count pulling on your hair as an activity, but I think you mean something like sports […]
You should have this conversation with your OB/GYN doctor. I do not prescribe or recommend birth control pills (BCP) in my practice, but more importantly you should not be taking BCP for hair loss. All medications have risks and benefits and potential side effects. As such, these matters are highly specific to each and every […]
Simply put — the answer to your question is “no”. While the mechanism of action for Accutane (isotretinoin) is not known, it is thought to reduce the secretion of sebum. I highly doubt it has any association with the mechanism of action of Propecia (finasteride). Plus, I would doubt that it would cause damage to […]
Most labels for product expiration are usually not reflective of the actual life of the product (usually longer than stated). I don’t believe that you should have a problem with hair loss from using such an outdated shampoo. Look to other causes like genetic hair loss. You had a couple thousand grafts transplanted (I assume […]
I would doubt that Nizoral would cause hair loss. I’ve not heard/read any reports of actual loss from this shampoo. Some believe that ketoconazole, the active ingredient in Nizoral, helps stimulate hair growth, but I’m not convinced until I can find more scientific studies on this.
I am not an expert in hormones, but things in medicine are not so binary. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the cause of hair loss in men (not women) who are genetically predisposed to hair loss. You can have a high level of DHT and still have a full head of hair. Women lose hair in a […]
A fungus spreads from person to person. A hat worn by a person with a fungus could transmit the fungus as the hat is shared with another. Fungal infections love warm, moist environments and if you sweat from the hat that is carrying a fungus, you may get it. Depending on the fungus, hair loss […]
Propecia works by blocking the formation of DHT. The hair loss side effect of certain medications, most likely will not come about from the action of DHT, so the two are not connected. At 19 years old, you are most likely experiencing the maturing hairline so it is possible you don’t have genetic balding (I […]
Dreadlocks cause traction alopecia. The constant pull on the hair root will cause the loss of that hair in the long term.
Folliculitis is an infection of your hair follicles. It can clear up on its own or your dermatologist can prescribe you medications to treat it. You shouldn’t lose hair from folliculitis unless it is chronically infected. Keep in mind though, the most common cause of hair loss in men is genetic hair loss.
Hair loss is a rare side effect of MANY medications, including SSRIs. In my experience, the most common cause of hair loss is genetic. If you are depressed about hair loss, I would see a dermatologist or hair transplant doctor for a medical evaluation.
Firstly, you need to discuss these issues with your doctor. How can you simply reject the plan set up by a doctor who has (1) seen you, (2) examined you, (3) established a relationship with you, and (4) recommended a treatment plan with you — and then expect me to advise otherwise? Accutane (isotretinoin) can […]
Unfortunately, I have no experience with the question to respond properly. After researching this a little bit, squats and deadlifts are said to be the most effective muscle building exercise, but I have no idea to what level the testosterone would increase while doing these workouts. Despite what I read (the sources I found were […]
As we all know, testosterone is converted to DHT, which is the main culprit in male pattern hair loss. There is always a risk, maybe low, that testosterone will cause hair loss since. It may help knowing if there is miniaturization in the remaining hair along the edge where the transplants were placed. Miniaturized hair […]
