My hair started to shed a lot after I took a lot of stress after 2 bad exams in the space of 4 months and it has now calmed down, but I still remain skeptical over if it's male pattern baldness or telogen effluvium as at a certain point a lot of hair was shedding. Could anyone clarify what has happened to my hair? Also, my mother and father don't suffer from baldness even if at their current age. I also suffer from a lot of dry skin.
