Hello, I am a young man (23) who has experienced diffuse thinning over the past few years. Over the past few years I also had severe untreated panic disorder. My hair was falling out easily and couldnt run my hand through my head without hair coming out but within a week or two of getting put on my anxiety medication and getting therapy, my hair loss has almost completely stopped, aside from a few random strands that are normal. Is it possible that this is TE induced by stress and not MPB? No significant history of mpb in my family. Only one uncle has thin hair on my mothers side but my mother has a huge family, something like 9 brothers and sisters. My hair line is completely intact too.
Panic disorder triggers the fight or flight response and causes a surge of adrenaline and cortisol. The medication I am on keeps the part of the brain that causes this in check and I maintain a healthy level of of adrenaline and cortisol. Excess cortisol has been linked to hair loss right? Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you for your time!
