Hello there 23 Years old. sorry for the jumbled story im dyslexic so limited to an extent but will try explain. Ive been shedding hair rapidly since march-april, Ive always had a thick head of hair although i think around 19 i got the M shape and just thought it was a mature hairline cause nothing else moved for years my hair would still be thick as hell and long after 2 weeks of a hair cut.
Ive been shedding hair rapidly since march-april time but around june i discovered at the doctors my iron b12 was very very low around 1.2 in my blood work - dont really know what that means though some of you might lol, i was prescribed folic acid tablets for 2 months which i took everyday and when my blood work was done again it was at around 13.4 so thats a high change. I also over a 2 year period lost around 5-6 stone from stress and which i think is the reason my iron levels were so low aswel.
I just really need to know if its the dreaded androgenetic alopecia or i have a case of chronic telogen so i took some pictures to share to see if anyone else could help me cause both symptoms seem so similar i just need to know so i can start treatment if it is AA.
Ask any questions im happy to answer.
