Alright, I have posted that I think I have DUPA. Reason? Thin sides. I have some pictures (flash and not flash). I have searched online about DUPA and everyone that posts about it seems to make it a death sentence. Even if a cure does come out, seems that DUPA people are screwed for life. Lame.
So I decided to check if there are other explanations. The only other 'disorders' that cause hairloss seem to come in form of a thyroid problem. But I noticed that most people that have thyroid problems always say it happens in a few months, as in they lose a ton of hair rapidly.
I was first told I was thinning around age 17-18. When I used to dye my hair. I noticed my 'sides where thinner' when I was about 22 years old and got a shorter haircut. Instead of staying on finasteride, I grew my hair out and it looked 'good' so I ignored it. Recently got a hair cut and I'm much thinner everywhere.
Is this DUPA? Maybe something else?
Here is my photo album:

There is a picture of me holding 3 tiny hairs on my index finger, that is actually brow hair. If I softly tug my brow hair, it falls off (1/2/5 hairs sometimes at a time).
Problem: I'm broke and going to school. I can't afford a 1,000 dollar plus bill from a dermatologist. Any suggestions?
Thoughts? :dropmouth:
