    Unhappy Am i balding at 18?

    Hello, i'm 18 years old

    My hair has been shedding a lot lately, i shed about 200 pieces of hair a day
    I notice hair on the floor, on my shoulder, when i brush my hair etc..

    When i pull on my hair with little force i would get 1-3 pieces most of the time.

    I use to have thick and strong hair 1-2 years ago.

    I take multivitamin and biotin but that seems to not help

    My dad started going bald at age 30, my uncles have full set of hair..

    Is my hairline receding and is my crown balding?
    I don't know if my ocd is kicking in but if anyone can help me and tell me if this looks normal or not it will be helpful

    Hi I'm newbie too. I'm 21. You have nothing to worry about. There is no balding at all. When I started thinning a couple of years ago (at 19) I freaked out and started looking into Finasteride. I read thousands of reviews. I went ahead and started taking it anyway. Thankfully it worked for me. I've been on it for 2 years. I noticed my hair loss stopped on its tracks about 3 weeks into taking it. Now I've regrown a lot of lost hair back. It changed my life.
