Wheres the hair going?


Question Posted Tuesday April 11 2006, 1:28 pm

I am 25 and almost 7ft. However, I do have one concern. Probably very common. My hair is disappearing. Balding is not really in the family tree. Although on my moms side, they do have thin hair. But i mean i am 25 and i am on my way to being bald. Is this normal? Is their ways i can have my hair grow back without laser surgery or hair transplant. Any help, tips, advice is very much appreciated.

Hello,

Yes, some men start losing their hair at 25. If it is male pattern baldness it will start frontally and on the crown. This is pretty typical. Thinning hair all over the scalp could be caused from a medical concern. If you want to look it up on the internet search for the word Alopecia. The best Dr to see for this problem would be a dermatologist.

A over the counter topical medication that has had some success is Minoxidil. A friend of mine used it and had good results, my husband used it and was just starting to see some new hair growth but he quit because he didn't want to spend the money each month. I think once a person stops their hair may fall back out. You could ask the Dr about this as a treatment and he/she will tell you if it's the best choice for your type of hair loss.

By your family history, yea it may be possible to be bald near your twenties. Maybe in your moms side their hair started thinning around your age but I'm not sure...as for ways to grow your hair, try Rogain or some vitamins or something like that.

I don't know exactly how you might slow it down...I'd check with a salon in your area with a good reputation. They may have some tips for you.

As far as it being normal at your age, yes it is.
If thin hair runs in your family it is certainly possible. :)
