I have been experience hair loss for almost a year now. My derm says repetative bouts of Telogen Effluvium from switching BCP's and then going off of them but I am concerned it might have triggered Androgenetic Alopecia, even though I'm only 26, because both my mother and my father have very thin hair. While I have gotten extrememly thin all over, I have noticed the majority of my loss is from my sides, especially right above my ears, and I also have a semi-circular area that has gotten really thin in the middle of my bang area. I really hate this area and it seems like the circle is spreading backwards to my crown and just getting larger and larger. Am I correct that with Androgenetic Alopecia, you usually have sparing of the frontal region in females? Has anyone else had similar hair loss patterns to this and does anyone know if this pattern of loss means something? THanks so much!
