Hi,
I'm a 20 y/o male and over the past couple of months I've been stressing over hair loss. I've noticed stuff that I never noticed before but I'm not sure if it's just because I'm looking for it whereas I wasn't before. I HAVEN'T noticed hair on my pillow or on the shower floor or anything like that. What I have noticed however is that if I run my hands from the scalp to the tip of my hair fairly firmly that I can often pull 1 or 2 hairs out. If I shampoo in the morning however then I usually can't pull any out. I also notice that my hair can be pulled out in the shower when its wet (can consistently pull 1 or 2 hairs out every time I run my hands through) much easier than when it is dry.
Also, over the last 3 months there has been around 3 times I have pulled out long hairs that are thin and have no colour unlike my normal dark hair. I've read about miniaturization before but these are long hairs and I've yet to pull out any small thin hairs and don't have any miniaturization at hairline. My hair still looks thick and hasn't changed in appearance from what I can see.
I do suffer from Body Dysmorphia Disorder and sometimes I tell myself that this is the reason I am stressing and that I am just imagining it, but I'm not sure.
Will appreciate any comments or advice.
