    28 y/o med student...would really like to know if it's happening...

    Hey guys, first time poster. I came across this forum via a quick google search. I'm a 28 year old male, currently in medical school and i don't have a history of male pattern baldness in my family.

    I've read that stress can cause hair loss but i'm starting to get a bit concerned.

    I'm not sure if you can tell by pictures but this is my current situation (i noticed this after getting a really short haircut). So the question is, am i balding? Should i go to a doctor about this?

    It is difficult to tell without before pictures. The last picture looks like some thinning but if it was taken with a flash the can make it look worse.

      Can any of us be positive where our genes are from without having ourselves and our parents tested to see if our genes match the genes of both parents?

        Hi there, you're under a bright light, however it does look like you have thinning on the temples and crown. The fourth photo also shows a diffuse pattern forming on the top of your scalp. I would go to a derm and get an official diagnosis, and if it is confirmed as MPB you can get on some treatment asap if that is the path you want to go down. All the best

            Oh, a nightmare really. I hope everything will be all right. And as for a medical student, there is some advice. Use the site phdessay.com/free-essays-on/who-am-i/ in order to pass items normally, I heard about how hard it is for you. I also studied as a physician, and subjects that I did not teach that were not necessary to me were always at the maximum ball.

              Hi there! Your situation is really unknown to me. Maybe it is because of stress. I had problems with skin when I was entering the University. Writing a cover letter for postdoc application is very important part of admission. It may take your time and energy to fulfill everything correctly. I know that https://www.essayedge.com/samples/gr...nal-statement/ spesialized in cover letters and preparing students' documents for the entrance to University. With their help this process seems not stressed

                well...as mentioned before, the photos are not really clear. Was your father bold? Because usually it is genetics. I have a similar problem two year ago. I am a med student at https://www.trinityschoolofmedicine....edical-schools and around october I have spotted that my hair is not as it used to be anymore. I got scared and asked a professor and he told me that it should also be stress + lack of vitamins. I took a course of vitamins plus bought some serums and in one year I got back to normal)) maybe I was lucky. Go see a doctor and if yes, start treating. But today there are hair implants guys! I have seen some amazing works)
