Hello,
I'm 27 years old male. Only my grandfather from my mother's side was bald (NW 7). No other hairloss problems for the rest of the family members.
I started losing hair on the vertex nearly 2 and a half years ago, when I was 24. It started a few months after a very stresful event in my life. Since then, I slowly lost hairs on the vertex. But the last months of 2017, again, I went through another stressful event. Starting from January 2018 a major shedding started on my scalp (over 200~ hairs / day), and now my scalp is visible, my hair is diffuse and thin.
I went to a dermatologist and I was diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia and tellogen effluvium. I was given Vichy Dercos and Vichy Aminexil.
Is it normal to shed this much? Anyone went through this? Any advice?
