    I've been there, man. You want your hairloss to be anything but MPB, which is much harder (to impossible) to deal with. It's why a few people want to flock to the threads on metabolic syndrome and scalp tightness. Eventually, you gotta accept that it's just balding. In my experience, the sooner you accept that, the sooner you can be relatively okay with it.
    Very true. In some respects you're luckier if it is MPB because at least it can be treated somewhat.

    If its something else, then most doctors are clueless when it comes to hairloss and the probably won't be able to help you.
