17 Year Old Guy Losing Hair And Itching Of Scalp

[D King]

Hi guys, I'm a 17 y/o guy from India, and I have been experiencing severe itching and hairfall since around 2-3 months. Maybe more. When I scratch my hair, around 20-30 hair strands fall out, out of which around 20% are extremely thin. My dad is NW2/3 at 45 (he's on meds), my grandpa was NW5 when he passed away and so was my mom's dad. I have accepted the fact that I am gonna go bald but I don't want to at such a young age. Help me out, please.

Oh and to add to that, I shaved my head around 3 months ago because of the itching, there was little to no dandruff and my scalp was really dry as per my hairstylist, the itching subdued upto an extent when my hair was short

This won't cut it. A pic with flash from an angle,exposing your hairline corners. Also a pic of your crown with flash. Click it in a dark room if possible

Hairline looks perfect, but you could still be diffusing. Unfortunately it has to progress to a certain extent before you can visually be sure. How many hairs do you lose in the shower?

You seem fine for now.. the right temple looks a bit questionable. The angle is not that good for the right temple

Thanks for the reply, around 10 ish when I shampoo my hair, sometimes a little more. I might be paranoid, but I have itching and when I scratch my hair, around 20 or more hair tend to fall out. It's really taking a toll on me.
Ps - do you think stress can cause thinning and hairloss? I have the biggest exam of my life in 2 months, and I'm a little stressed about how it's gonna go

Hahaha, best of luck mate. I don't think so, it has been that way since atleast 3-4 months. But, maybe, it has. I will check some old photos and let you know. Thanks for all the help
