Hi guys,
I shaved my head last week to see what the F is going on.
My hair loss started in 2018, I think it went aggressive after the summer. My barber started to notice the front sides of my scalp. Before that I always had thick hair. The weirdest thing is I'm getting thin hair above my ears aswell and I think a bit started on the back, under my crown, I think... I also have these small "bald spots" as you can see on the pictures 4-7 which I never had before. One is above my forehead in the middle. I have no receding hairline. I always had this hairline.
I have that crown since my early 20s (30 now). It developed a bit in 2018. You can't even notice it when I have long hair, only when there's light on it.
My life conditions: I was diagnosed with stomach infection which I had for 2 years. Therefore I was forced to use pantoprazole which I did for 3 years and then I found out about hair loss caused by proton pump inhibitors. The internet is full with it. Stopped using it 3 weeks ago (immediately).
Next week blood results. I'll keep you updated. For now, I am asking for advise. What do I have? DPA? DUPA? Telogen Effluvium? Or do I have a combination? Does anyone recognise this? Thank you.
The pictures are taken in chrono order (2 weeks ago (long hair) - 1 week ago (short hair) - today (short hair). Excuse my English.
PS: My dad is 67 and Norwood 3.
