Okay guys, im a 17 year old male. Now I never used to see any hair come out and always have had a whole lot of hair which has always been very thick. All of a sudden one day I noticed hair coming out in the shower, and it just kept coming out! I think it started in around March and is still happening and its now nearly December. I think I will have to go to the Doctor but just wanted your opinion on what this shedding means. I mean I only have to touch my hair a bit and hairs come out. It's pretty much my whole head. I've been depressed for quite some time and the hair loss has made it a lot worse. My dad still has hair and is nearly 52. His hair only started to thin out and recede in his 40's. Most of my uncles all have hairlines that go straight across like a little kid and has never even matured. Then there is one uncle that went bald young, but he was the only one in the family and everyone else had hair until they were in old age. It's just becoming so hard now. I'm also seeing these white flakes just come out everywhere and it doesnt stop. I have a black keyboard, so if I rub my hair I just see white flakes everywhere... I tried using Head and Shoulders shampoo for a while and it never worked. I will be going to the Dr. soon but just wondered if you guys could make an educated guess on what you think it is? Cheers.
I forgot to add that because of the shedding my hair is all different lengths all the time. Because so much hair is lost my hair is all over the place. I have short and longer hairs all the time!
