hello, I have been under stress. Lost my job and trying to make ends meet. I dont know where to go to ask someone if im going bald and since I lost my job no insurance. I feel like the hair in my growth pattern (top of my head crown area) is getting rugged and coarse. Very wirey for lack of a better word..
I wear a hat but not tight just getting really nervous… Please just tell me a quick something!!
Sorry to hear about losing your job and the stress that goes with it. There’s not much I can tell you about your hair loss though, because there’s not enough info available to me to give much help. It’s almost like calling an auto mechanic and saying, “My car is having problems. How much would it cost to fix it?”
In the great majority of men, hair loss is caused by genetics. Stress can exacerbate that loss. The textural change in your hair could be the hairs miniaturizing, but I don’t know what you’re feeling and I’ve not examined your scalp myself. The hat you’re wearing isn’t the cause… I know that much.
If you’re concerned about your hair, see a doctor. If there’s no free clinic in your area, try a hair transplant doctor that offers a free consultation (they’ll know hair loss). Check ISHRS.org for a hair doc in your area, but please note that not all doctors offer free consultations, so be sure to ask when setting up your appointment.
Austrian authorities say they have destroyed 22,324 fake medications seized by customs officials over the past few months.
Phytocyane’s main ingredient appears to be grapeseed extract, which is presently being pushed for a variety of medical problems. In my opinion, you are wasting your money and hopes on a product that cannot deliver. It is in a nice packaging and they have a nice website to look credible, but in the end it is just an expensive lotion (among the other products in their line).
If you’ve got early hair loss, that is when medication like Propecia (finasteride 1mg) works best. You might be able to take a pill each day and see better results than you could from a hair transplant surgery. The medication can stop the loss from progressing and possibly regrow hair. Besides, no surgeon should perform a transplant on a teenager with early hair loss like you describe. If you find a doctor that wants to rush you into cosmetic surgery at 19 years old with early hair loss, he’s just looking at you as a revenue source, not as a patient.
It is important to understand that these hair styles evolve over years. I don’t think anyone just goes “Well, today is the day I finally cover up this bald head with some long hair from the side!”
The average hair cycle is 3 years and the average person loses 100 hairs per day, which adds up to about the total hair population on an average head (100,000 hairs).
