I'm beginning to feel as if diffuse unpatterned alopecia/retrograde alopecia can be caused by the quality of water we wash our hair with. Prior to moving to the city which I live in right now two years ago I was a perfect NW1 with the density of a 10 year old, my brother was the exact same, now...

Thanks for the advice, I was not aware of scarring or fibrosing alopecia, I'll look into that. As far as retrograde goes I'm not sure about that difference between that and DUPA, I really doubt any doctor can even help me they all just seem clueless and instead of looking into steroids or...

I honestly don't think I can go on living for 6-12 months without any hair knowing I might never recover, this really sucks Yeah I keep seeing this 50% of men recover statistic but no actual success stories, seems like my life is over then no point in going on

That being said there are no bald men in my family. My...

First post and a long one as none of this makes sense, a bit of background information on my hair loss: In December 2019 at the age of 19 I first noticed any noticable hairloss, it began as one or two hairs that I would see on my pillow or clothes, at the time I was about a Norwood 1 with very...
