    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Surely something irregular is going on in the back, no? Look at my most recent pics. That is aggressive thinning in the back for someone who's hairloss is not that advanced yet. I actually just scheduled something with a derm to check it out, but ultimately it doesn't really matter honestly. My...

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    If you mean like if I gently pull in those regions do hairs fall out? Yes. Tons. Seemingly endless honestly, I feel like I could count 200+ hairs a day from just the back of my head.

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Just as an update, I'm like 80% convinced I have Alopecia Ophiasis now. Definitely experiencing male pattern baldness too because baldness is in the family and my hairline has receded in a regular way, but I'm like pretty sure I've got Alopecia Ophiasis as well. Might go to the doctor for it...

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    That's for f*****g sure. Super frustrating lol. Like in my opinion hair transplants and hair systems are both really good options, and I'm basically screwed out of either option.

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Yeah definitely looks like you're thinning out on the sides too. I'm starting to suspect I have DUPA as well. When you pull up the hair on the back of my head it appears to me like it's miniaturizing/balding too. It's just weird because when I'm not touching my hair it looks like I have a clown...

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    I think it could be. I likely have turbo-balding genes because I just turned 22 and I'm Norwood 3 with thinning on the sides. My dad NW7+ and has been at least NW6 or so since he was like 29, maybe even earlier. Look at Steve ballmer and Danny DeVito here. Turbo-balders. Went bald young. Their...

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    It's weird because my hair generally looks full and thick on the sides. But if you pull/sweep it back it reveals itself as extremely thin. Really really frustrating.

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Is this even male pattern baldness? I mean I definitely have MPD, I have like a Norwood 3 hairline. But wtf is going on?

    10 Months on Big 3 - Picture Update - what do I make of this?

    Can do you have before and after pics? I feel like 90% of the time people who swear they are still losing are just maintaining

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    def thinks it's gotten worse. probably gonna go on finasteride again. Wasn't a great responder last time from what I could tell, but hopefully I'll maintain. Sucks that whatever this is will probably keep me from getting a transplant or even a hair system. Feel pretty hopeless at this point of...

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Hmm. Its definitely not the natural density, I had no thinning on my sides just a few months ago. Hopefully this is just a phase and things stabilize because if I go super bald on the sides it’s over.

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    Hmm hopefully it’s just that. Sometimes it looks really weird though

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    If this is the case, how thin will it get? Will it go slick bald or even just significantly thinner than this? I just turned 22 for reference. I was really committed to trying the hair system thing lol, this sh*t sucks… hair loss is always so complicated

    What is causing me to lose hair on the side of my head?

    In the past few months I’ve lost a lot of density on the right side of my head. I cant seem to find a real explanation for what is causing this. I could have dupa or retrograde alopecia, but I am not thinning noticeably on the left side or the back of my head. It could be a thyroid issue or some...

    Recently Started Finasteride, Looking For A Little Reassurance

    I’ll probably just relax and trust that the finasteride will work. But if I keep losing hair like this at ~3 months I probably will consider switching to dutasteride.
