Strange Hair Thinning Front Centre Only

[Joe1990joe]

Hey all,

Bit of background I'm a 26 yo with no history of male pattern baldness on my maternal side but with on my paternal side.

I have struggled with anxiety for many many years now and wonder if this has an impact on my hair.

Basically my hair seems to be thinning at the front centre only. Apart from that my hair seems to be very thick and no change to my hairline .

Just wondering if the thin patch at the front is caused by stress? If so I should probably bring it up with the Dr or is it just the start of me going bald. I do have a cowlick either side of this patch which I've had all my life

Many thanks in advance,

Joseph.

It could be male pattern baldness that simply is not graded by the norwood scale. Remember, 95% of males hair issues is because of androgenic alopecia. Keep an eye on it and if it gets worse start treatments.

Might be early sign of balding. I had a similar experience where a mild bald patch appeared at the centre which i dismissed as infection from an eczema wound. But it had expanded over the past 10 years which then spread to the rest of the hairline at the front.

Some people just have that mate. Looks fine. Cant see any male pattern baldness

And another image, any more opinions?

seems like there is miniaturisation going on which is most likely from male pattern baldness unfortunately

Ahh no problems , might as well enjoy my hair whilst I can then, will slowly cut it back to a 0 over the next few years then, might as well embrace it!

Hey, any news on that? I have the same thing, has it progressed for you? Do you treat it somehow?
Thanks

Do you have a family history of balding?

I wouldn't recommend embracing it. I believe your dating life will fall in the shitter if you do. Women these days consider baldness as bad hygiene.

If things get worse just start treatment.

Funny how bald men embrace it by shaving it down to a zero to hide their hair loss pattern. Embracing it is leaving it how it is.

Women have told me before that head shaving is the modern day combover. They know you are hiding the horseshoe pattern and the only reason you shave is to hide it.

Thinning only at the front-centre (behind the hairline, the area some people call the "forelock" or mid-frontal zone) is actually a very typical early pattern, so it is worth taking seriously even with strong hair elsewhere (I work on the editorial team of an online pharmacy, general information only):

• Pattern loss can come from either side of the family, and a father-side history counts. Some men thin first in the mid-front area while the hairline itself stays put.
• Stress and anxiety can cause telogen effluvium, but that usually causes diffuse shedding over the whole scalp rather than one well-defined area. Chronic stress can, however, speed up shedding on top of an underlying pattern.
• How to tell: a dermatologist's trichoscopy shows whether hairs in that area are getting finer (miniaturisation = pattern loss) or simply shedding at normal thickness (effluvium).
• If it is early pattern loss, this is the stage where treatment (finasteride and/or minoxidil, with a doctor) gives the best results, because the follicles are still active.

And separately, if anxiety has been tough for years, it is worth treating in its own right; it often improves sleep, scalp habits like touching or pulling, and overall wellbeing too.
