Please view my photo, serious shedding, need advice to where to start

[NJhair]

Guys,
I've had some SERIOUS hair sheds and currently lost >50% of my hair. I'm 29 and these sheds began about 4 years ago.

As much as I want to get on Propecia/Rogaine/etc.. I am in denial that this is typical male pattern baldness.

I believe it's Telogen Effluvium (hair sheds caused by some unknown factor) and I've been taking vitamins for the past month and plan to see if I have any improvements before.

Back in February 2012, I had a HORRIBLE shed, I was feeling sick, weak, I had allergies and I have no idea what the cause was. I posted some photos on this site:

Suprisingly, my hair grew back considerably a few months later. I concluded that I had some type of allergy at the time that caused all those problems.

But now that hair shedding continues. My current photo attached shows that my hair line isn't the typical receding hairline you'd find with MPB. And compared to my photos from 2012, the hairline has actually improved.

It's just the rest of my head that continues to shed profusely. Literally, every morning I run my hands through my head and hairs fall out. LOTS of them. Even when I shampoo. Almost any pressure applied to my head results in hairs falling out.


Anyone else have experience with this type of loss? Any recommendations/suggestions?

Am I really in denial about it being MPB and should I get on meds asap?
