23, M, been slowly thinning in one temple of the hairline and now slowly diffusing throughout scalp.

I am particularly concerned on the sides of my head that they are diffused and thus meaning I have DUPA. They have been like this at LEAST a year now, even when my hair was thicker on top of my head. However they weren’t like this when I was 17/18 I believe.

I’m the pictures the hair is messy and with a bright flash - my question to you(IF YOU KNOW WHAT DUPA IS) is this Dupa or can sideburns be thin like this? My scalp is no way near this thin like this.

More likely to be retrogade alopecia, DUPA is not very common.

Hello, just to recap, I am a man and have DUPA hair loss (or female pattern hair loss), diffuse hair loss and thinning (back, sides and top) which started 3 years ago after an episode in my life where my alimentation was very bad and had nutrient deficiency for sure. After fixing my alimentation properly my hair are still shedding and thinning all over.

Since 8 month i only take 1mg finasteride / day (no reduction on my hair loss), cb0301 30mg topicaly with no reduction on my hair loss, Biotin (10mg/day), spearmint tea (4 cup/day to reduce free testosterone), Flaxseed (30 g/day to reduce testosterone)

Here is a complete blood test that I have done 3 weeks ago. It would be great if some of you may highlight some issue in it and maybe propose corrective action as he might help others with similar hair loss.

From my perspective, I think I have low zinc, low vitamin d, high prolactin level, high cortisol level and maybe iron deficiency as we can have it according to study even with normal level of blood iron.
