Hey guys, i've been reading this stuff for a while and i've finally decided to say something. Its been a confusing year of hope and despair that hasn't brought any solutions for me. I'm the youngest user i've seen on here. I just turned sixteen a few weeks ago and ive been looking at this for about a month.
I've been balding for about a year now and its been a pretty emberrassing situation for a sophomore in high school to go through. It Started to be noticable in fall of last year. Silly enough that i wasn't even the first one to notice, I had a parted hair style and my friend told me that that my scalp kept getting more noticable. Well after this i told my mom (she is what you could call a health nut) and she took me to an herbal doctor, she drew my blood and showed me it and my stuff was wack. My red Blood cells were all deformed in odd shapes and jammed up piled on top of each other (as opposed to being a healthy puck shaped freely moving through my blood stream) and i was filled with, as she told me, parasites. This actually is a whole story in itself and i can explain that stuff later if your interested. But basically my health was terrible, So she told me that i was too young to be balding and that it must be my terrible health.
I readily accepted this conclusion and i started eating right and taking vitimans and all that jazz. Although i felt alot better and my quality of life improved, my hair didn't. I stopped parting my hair and kept on believing in the health remedy, and was fine since it was generally hard to notice.
In the winter i was swimming and it was just terrible, i never took off my cap i was so emberrassed. So then i chose to buzz my hair, this made it look a whole lot better and dramatically improved my self confidance. After a while the scalp became more noticable and i worried a bit.
After months of taking fish oils and the like of that i once again realized i needed to do something. Late in the winter i scheduled an appointment with a doctor, during this he tested my thyroid (my mom had thyroid cancer) and mine was pretty messed, so i started on some thyrolar. Since i've heard hair loss can relate to thyroid issues, i was very confident that i would get better. But as before, it made me feel a little better but didnt really do a whole lot for my hair.
Later, in the spring i once again looked for a remedy, and i found out that my thyroid was still lacking and i added armor thyroid to the thryrolar. This time i really didnt notice a whole lot and started to get fed up with the delays. So i started looking on the internet at all of this stuff, and i've found plenty of useful information.
Well, tomarrow im going back to the herbal doctor ( the first one), and im going to try to convince both her and my mother that i should take some dht blocker and possibly try more than just health solutions I'll also have to prove that my hair has only gotten worse since last year.
Ive got thinning all over my crown and its surprisingly noticable for how young i am, my buzzcut really isn't helping much anymore and I want to start on something before school starts again in a couple of weeks. Well, I've got my apointment in about 13 hours, so if i could some answers before i'd be better prepared to school the herbal lady
Is it possible that it could be a lack of vitimans and minerals that is causing the balding?
Could it be that im either taking too little or too much thyroid medicine and that's causing my balding, or if it even matters at all?
Do you need to use the Loreal thickening shampoo every day for it to be effective or can you use it every other day? (it really makes my hair brittle and unhealthy feeling)
Have you ever heard of a 15-16 year old balding as quickly as i have?
(noticably thin crown coverage in less than a year)
Thank you guys for reading, and thanks for answers and support, i really appreciate it.
