Hello.
I am 22 y o male,and lately ,i've been experiencing some major hair loss ,as u will be able to see in attached pictures . Nothing that would make people look at me like a bald or balding person( at least i hope) but it surely is going towards it.
The thing is :In my whole family( huge family on fathers side and smaller on my mothers side) there is not a single person who had any receeding or visible hair thining before age of 50 .My father who is 77 years old has started receeding and thining about 5 years ago , and still has acceptable portion of hair(for his age). Basicly , it is like they were trying to match up for full head of hair .
I have seen some smaller receeding about 3 years ago , but then i considered it just to be maturing hairline , as it was looking pretty normal . My hair only falls out at about this time of the year(august-december) which is , as i red ,time when most people lose lots of their hairs , but it's seasonal and it should grow back .Well , my doesn't . It falls of,and stays like that untill next year , and so on....fading year by year
Today , as i pulled my hair strongly with both of my hands , i counted more than 15 hairs in the sink.Thats 1 pull,both hands. As for the rest of the year , falling is minimal , basicly if i pull,i get maximum 2 -3 hairs , while at some parts of the year i can't pull even one
To tell the truth , i haven't really lived a full healthy life . 60% of my meals where junk food , vegetables and fruits on very rare ocasions , due to me spending lots of my time at university and not beeing able to come home for meals , but staying there and eating whatever i can get my hands on .
Few weeks ago i've made a change in my diet , lots of vitamin B jucies(Carrot and beet jucies , directly squized) and regular meals and such . Im pretty skinny ,and few days ago i started at gym at reuglar basis . Anything else i could add to my diet that could improve my hair care ?
What other causes for hair loss could there be ?
Also , because of the genetics i allready wrote about , i was hoping i could avoid agressive hair loss medications like propecia(I've heard that impotence sideeffect can sometimes be ireversible , is that true ?) and use some more natural or easyer going medications , that would improve my hair growth( or slow falling of at this time of year) while not making me slave to them for the rest of my life if i don't want to lose the hair they helped me gain?
If there aren't such medications , if i could get advice for some that could be used in my case and general public thinks it's effective , that would be great
I haven't full monitored hairloss since long time ago, but i do have some last year photos of it .
3 years ago( can't see hairline , but you can see it was preety thick back then )
