So I noticed this loss of hair in July and it was random. I had an excessive shedding of Hair up until September. It has slowed down since since then. My hairline and crown and are fine and intact. No receding hairline and no balding at the crown. Yet I’m still confused about this hair loss. I know it’s a hair loss but I want to know how serious it is and is it time I get on monxidil at least? Also is this male pattern or is my hair in resting phase? Diffuse thinning? Idk I’m just guessing at this point

You are going bald. Hop on dutasteride/minoxidil/keta

I think it is the start of diffuse male pattern baldness. What is ur family history of hairloss? You are 28 years old?
No that’s not my real age lol. But I’m 24 actually. No one in my family has suffered from hair loss but my mom has female pattern baldness but that appeared when she turned 58. So it’s very puzzling to me why I suddenly lost a patch.
I would definitely say lack of sleep and stressed lately. But could that thin it that much?

Dude it looks like your balding diffusely from he center part of your hair ... All you can do is jump in meds and hope it stabilizes it and possibly thickens....or just accept it and live your life. Either way best of luck.

You should see a doctor to make sure that you have male pattern baldness. If you do then you can start off with minoxidil or finasteride. If your doctor thinks it is aggressive then maybe start with both. You could add and do other things afterwards but those two (minoxidil/finasteride ) are the only real options right now. But make sure by seeing a doctor first.
