A study Wikipedia cites that is evidence of stress increasing hair loss:http://www.karger.com/Article/Abstract/
I'm somewhere between 2 and 3 on the Norwood scale...and I've had generalized anxiety disorder all of my life. So I'm kind of chronically stress. There is a history of younger hair loss in my family, but more around 30, not 20. My hair started to recede at around 18. I'm just wondering if all of this chronic stress somehow accelerated my male pattern baldness. If so, how much earlier do you think it could have caused it to begin? Is it possible I wouldn't have begun to lose my hair until around 25 or something?
