I was looking at my past photos

When I was 17 I was norwood -1 .. hair was covering quarter of my forehea.

When I was 19. I was norwood 1.5 .. very aggressive hair loss during 2 years ( I am a also a diffuse thinner)

So at the rate I must have been bald by 2 or 3 years.

But surprisingly at 26. I was stillll norwood 1.5

But since I turned 27 baam I lost 0.5 nowrood within months and I am shedding like crazy.

Can anyone guess what stopped my hair loss at 19? Why would my scalp be so sensitive to DHT for 2 years then decrease the sensitivity for 7 years and then suddenly become super sensitive again?

Think about your life style during those times and see if there has been a change also review the relatives on both sides and see what their hair looks like

I actually had the best hair when my lifestyle was horrible and I gained 100 lbs. Now after I lost all the weight my hair is shedding even though I am eating healthy.

Non of my maternal side uncles have hairloss and my grandfather is norwood 1, but my mom herself has frontal thinning which is weird. My dad diffusly thinned from 35 in a norwood 6 pattern. Had good amount of hair until probably 42 but he was officially labeled bald at 45. Another paternal uncle was bald at same age as my dad but the rest of his brothers are norwood 0 which is again weird. My older brother who is 32 (I am 27) is norwood 1.

It has nothing to do with lifestyle. In your DNA it is just written for you to lose it in that way. Maybe you will keep the NW2 for another 10 years again and then drop to NW3 in a few months. You never know, hairloss is unpredictable.
