So I just buzzed my hair really short because I'm leaving the country for vacation and wanted to have it short. Also wanted to see the pattern with which I am losing my hair.
Been noticing a lot of hairs in the shower the last few months and thought it was all from my hairline up front, but now I'm now so sure. Posted earlier pics with long hair when I first thought my front was going and also some picture with the buzz cut. Is this diffuse thinning or does it just look like that because it's cut so short?
Diagnosed with De Quervain's Thyroiditis, which the doctor said could take 4-8 months to recover from. I have had it for a month now, I'm in the hyperthyroid phase, then I'll probably be hypothyroid for a few months, then hopefully back to normal.
My hair loss started months before I got this (I think) but it could be that the symptoms were much more mild before last month. Both stages (hyper and hypo) cause elevated levels of DHT supposedly but I don't know if my levels are elevated.
So what do you guys think? I know the front is REALLY thinning, but what about all over?
