Do men or women lose more hair per day naturally

Men actually shed more hairs per day because they have a shorter anagen cycle. Women can grow their hair much longer than men so they lose less per day and regrow less as well. Women can grow hair as long as 3 1/2 feet while men can’t and often grow their length to no more than 18 inches in length. That means that using the formula of 100,000 hair on the head for a typical Caucasian, if the hair is shed after anagen, the women with 3 1/2 feet length hair will lose about 50 hairs per day while the male who will grow to a length of 1 1/2 inches will lose up to 100 hairs per day.

I Have Asymmetrical Receding Hairline

I share this because I think Im a pretty good example of aysmmetircal receding of the hairline. I am a 27 year old (half Italian half English caucasian male) and my right corner of my hairline began to slowly recede exactly two years ago.

The left is still more or less compltely in tact ( I know it will catch up in time)

My father is 49 and he has the same hairline as this guy images (but short hair not long)

No hair loss at the crown (or negligible) and heavily receded hairline, but overall a decent amount for a near 50 year old. It is thinning more the last few years though. I think he said he started balding at 27.

His father has slightly more hair than him, basically a near full head of hair at 75. My mother´s father has a Norwood at 75. There are no complete baldies in my family.

I guess I would like this to be a ‘mature’ hairline but Im not sure that exists anywhere other than in moviestars and this will continue to receded.

As I said, my left side is totally fine, my right side has receded an inch or so and in that space where the hairline was is some minituarisewd hair. Behind it the hair appears fine and not miniturarised. Very thick hair overall.

Thoughts?

It’s quite simple. We are all built differently! In fact we are not quite symmetrical as you may think. Some have uneven length arms, uneven shoe sizes, uneven smiles, etc. Hair line and recession is not immune to such asymmetry. On a positive note (if you want to call it positive) the other side will likely catch up with the receding side with time.

Microblading gone wrong

I had my eyebrows microbladed six months ago and the results are horrendous. How do I get rid of this ugly look quickly?

There are laser that are very superficial like the Q Switch laser that could take out the inks. There is a risk that you might lose your eyebrows if the inks were placed deep in which case you might then need an eyebrow transplant.

Avodart and Androgenic Alopecia in Women

What information did you learn about Avodart’s effectiveness in treating androgenic alopecia at the Sept. ’05 conference in Sydney, Aust.? Any hope for female pattern hair loss?

Avodart (dutasteride) may have value in those men where Propecia (finasteride) fails to work, but as it is not FDA approved for treating hair loss I can not in good conscience wholeheartedly endorse it. It does not show value in women.

Microneedling does bleed

This is a good photo after microneedling that goes down to a depth of between 1 – 1.5mm. This is where the stem cells are targeted. There is going to be some pain but most men who do this once a week put up with the pain for the gain.

Bad side effect reported with Minoxidil

I want to say that, I used Rogaine a month ago. I applied it only 3 times, mainly due to the headaches, heart palpitations and dizziness. Since stopping I have had hair coming out like crazy. People at work have noticed and I’ve noticed dark circles under my eyes and a puffy face. Stay away from this product. I’m just hoping the hair that I have lost since using it comes back.

This is highly unusual and must like is the result of a combination of some allergy plus significant drug absorption over time.

Unfortunately, there is no reference to the use of other supportive therapies by this man. Many people who get such results, use minoxidil and I suspect that he may have done so.

Comment: This man wrote back and told me that he is using finasteride and minoxidil as well as the micro-needling. This is what I would have expected with the combination treatment.

Bald Spot After a Large Bump on Head

My son hit the side of his head a few months ago and got a rather large bump. I have noticed a bald spot right where he hit it and was wondering if this has anything to do with that?

Direct trauma can sometimes cause hair loss. If you are concerned I’d take him to see doctor, but otherwise I would give it 8 months or so to see if hair will grow back.

Miniaturized Hair All Over, But Same Hairline As When I Was 16

I have miniaturized thinning all over my head (top, sides, back, sideburns and facial/chin hair does not seem as thick either) which began about 2-3 years ago. At the same time my thinning began it was accompanied by depression, fatigue. I have been thinning with every growth cycle and feeling depressed, fatigued ever since until this day. I have had my thryoid tsh checked 3 times (TSH- 1st-1.98 2nd- 2.28, 3rd- 2.36) I had testosterone checked 3 times as well (1st- 320, 2nd- 385, 3rd- 360…… ref 250-850) LH hormone levels were all on the very very low side when checked w/ all 3 testosterone testes. I had ferritin checked 105 (ref 22-322) I had knee surgery about 4 months ago (left knee bone graph w/ arthroscopy). Is there anything that is causing my total hair thinning/follicle shrinkage? Is it possible to have shrinking follicles/ thinning diameter hair that is not MPB related? I have absolutely no balding, no recession at all, my hairline is the same as when I was 16! whats the matter with me? should I use minox or propecia? I once tried saw palmetto when I first noticed my thinning about 2 years ago and it gave me ED! so I know I would probably have a tough time using prop or fin! thank you

Simply put, you need a caring doctor and a good doctor/patient relationship. That is the start of surrounding your problem. There is no easy way to get this over the internet.

Balding and Hair Characteristic Genes?

Hello doctor. I was wondering, are the genes for balding and hair ‘type’ independent? For example, if a bald person has straight hair as does their son, is their son at a higher risk of losing their hair since they have the same hair type. I guess this could be similar for curly hair too.

As far as I’m aware, hair characteristics and balding aren’t linked. For example, a son might have the same hair type as his father, but the son didn’t get the father’s balding pattern. There’s also nothing showing a link between hair color and baldness.
