    Sudden, Rapid Shedding And Thinning At Crown

    Hey guys, figured I’d post an update on here in case anyone else has similar problems. It was definitely Telogen Effluvium. My shedding stopped pretty suddenly around February, and the crown seems to be filled back in to where it was. My stress at work has tapered off, so likely due to that and...

    Sudden, Rapid Shedding And Thinning At Crown

    What's your aversion to finasteride? I've been on it over two years, and no sides. The studies I've read show that even people on the placebo pill have reported sides, which further proves it's probably nothing at all, or something else in their life causing those. All meds have a risk...I was...

    What could be causing the rapid shedding then? It's still going on, just less noticeable since I buzzed it off and the hairs are shorter.

    Sudden, Rapid Shedding And Thinning At Crown

My uncles on my dads side experienced balding in their late 30's. My dad has all of his hair at 52. Dark and zero recession. Their dad is prob a NW5 at 75...

    Sudden, Rapid Shedding And Thinning At Crown

    I appreciate the response. Believe it or not, when it's grown out, it's much darker and more dense in all areas besides the crown. When I wake up and it's greasy, it's very visible in the crown, esp under any kind of light or flash. I was sitting on the couch and my roommate touched my crown and...

    Sudden, Rapid Shedding And Thinning At Crown

    I'll try to be brief, but informative here. I'm a brand new member. I am 25, and noticed recession around age 20, with miniaturization at the temples. Nothing crazy. I finally got a derm to agree to give me finasteride, and all shedding and recesssion stopped completely. My hairline is the same...
