This is like a cycle I find myself going in and out of and I think a lot of people out there do the same. How to you combat stress if you are stressed over hair loss to stop the stress from causing more hair loss!? It is like an annoying riddle!

It may be that stress has a minor effect on hair loss, whereby it accelerates the progress. Even if that is so, it probably won't be a positive-feedback loop that grows exponentially, but rather one that plateaus.

There are two ways to combat stress from hair loss. One is to focus on other issues, the other is to defeat hair loss.

This is true. I know some people actually do lose a lot of hair from stress alone but I think that is high levels of stress like PTSD, GED, and panic attacks. Stuff like that. Normal stress can't have that huge of an impact without an underlining issue. Still though. I know I make it worse by worrying over it.

I don't think I've seen a thread discussed about something like this before.

My Father is fully aware that my hair loss is caused by my genetic Male Pattern Baldness, but strongly believes that stress plays a role as well. Stress increasing hair loss but the condition itself really does cause more stress, it's almost like a paradox! o_O

stress do nothing with mbp

my mother suggested me buy a comb to massage temples to regrow hair once

people think we lose hair because we do not put enough effort to massage our scalp

I have a different opinion.
I had my first panic attack soon after my derm said my hairloss outlook was very gloom.
Stress has never left me since.
IMHO, hairloss gives you stress, not the other way around. At least this was my experience when I was a careless student, not a stressed employee...

It's well known that stress is worst thing ever. Even smoking isn't that dangerous. Check your hormones while you are in a stress. When you can order your hormones, you can minimize effect of hair loss.
