"My Question is this: I have been experiencing hair loss for about 4 years now. It started when I was about 17 years old. And really started to get bad around the time that I began weightlifting seriously. I am now 21, and am about a northwood 3 with a rediculous amount of thinning through that middle strip that I have left in the middle. The hairloss is also very diffuse through my entire head especially in the middle and all the way back. I wear a hat 99% of the time too. I was on 80MG of Accutane for two seperate time of 6 months. once at 14 or 15, the other at 16. My scalp is very very pale and every single pore is very large and dark on my scalp. Blackheads I think they are. They are not dark where the hair has gone completely bald, only in the ares where hair remains all over my head, and they are extremely dark around the hairs that are in the middle front strip. If you put pressure like you were popping a pimples or a blackhead on my scalp anywhere like you were doing in on your face, you get the same reaction. Out from every pore or follicle can be squeeze a solid little yellowish white piece of, what I'm assuming is sebum. I don't practice this often, but the few times I have done it, a hair has come out with it. I have been taking propecia for 8 months now and minoxidil for about 4 or 5 and have seen almost no results, possible worse than what I had before. Is it possible that the Accutane has damaged my hair follicles or shrunken them? I often wonder if I have an androgen disorder because I have rediculous muscle mass and I haven't worked out in about 2 years. I also have Pubic hair think arm hairs. Very sparse, coarse and long. I have to shave them. They can be inches long if I let them. Thanks for your time, Dust hurting up North. "
