hi guys,

i just turned 31 and have been dealing with diffuse unpatterned alopecia (dupa) since my late teens. i've been on finasteride for about a year at around 20yo but it didn't seem to do much, so i dropped it. my hair loss has been progressing slowly but surely since then. used to have normal to thick, wavy hair, which has turned thin and wispy.

as you can see in the pics i definitely don't have typical male pattern baldness. have good coverage with a near nw0 hairline, but overall lowish volume (including donor area), with the sides of my scalp being the thinnest area (they look terrible at longer lengths).

i was wondering if anyone here has had success with any treatments for dupa? would min/rolling be effective for this type of loss? fwiw, i did some bloodwork with a complete thyroid panel a year ago that came back normal except for low vit d and high-ish iron levels. i was surprised by the results, since i have many of the symptoms of hypothyroidism. are there any additional tests i could do to rule out some kind of autoimmune disease?

thanks in advance for any info!

My advice would be to keep the sides short, your hair on top is great.

Massage in a leave in pure olive oil in your scalp overnight. I goes into the follicle and cleanses DHT!

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.
