    Unhappy I suppose it's my fault, but any help would be great!

    Hello all!

    It seems i finally let my hairloss get the best of me, i've been losing my hair for a few years now, but these last few months seemed to have just really taken a toll on what used to be a full full FULL head of thick hair. Anyway i had a question, or questions really.

    1. would anyone know of any credible hair loss doctor (specialists?) in the los angeles area?

    2.or anybody that has luck with any products the would recommend?

    i'm 26 and the hair loss is pretty bad, but the worst part is, is that hair loss is nowhere in my family not my moms side and not my dads side (well my fathers father was losing his hair before he passed but the dude was like 85!) none at all.


    anyway thanks in advance for any help anyone might have!

    -Manu

    same situation, nobody in family with hairloss, they didn't even believe me that I have such problem, also I'm the hairiest person in my family so tell me about genetics I'm just that 'lucky' one

    I am sure that there several very good hair restoration doctors in the LA area. I do know that Dr. Kenneth Siporin and Dr. Marc Daauer do excellent work and take a lot of pride in each case. Nice guys too. You may want to consider some hair loss prevention options as well such as Propecia or Rogaine.

    Manurenoir it’s always best to determine if it’s dietary or environmental cause at first and always consult a doctor last as they can only advise you to take medication or have surgery. In other areas they are mostly clueless. Since you have no hair loss in your family it could very well be something in your diet. Clean it up and reevaluate your situation.

    how should we determine if it is dietary or environmental? when it looks like mpb and no hairloss in family.

    Very interesting, so it seems that genetically, you should have great hair. This always puzzles me. There could be a chance that it is some vitamin/mineral deficiency if you indeed are not genetically balding.

    Good luck, and I would research more and would visit a capable doctor who knows more about non-genetic balding.

    It’s called empirical evidence which is deduced by observation. It is also the way medicine was meant to be practiced before it was hijacked by the pharmaceutical whores. You should know if you are eating crap or not you tell us.

    Eliminate the garbage and make observations over time. This is hard for most people because they have been conditioned to expect the quick fix and the quick fix usually just digs a deeper hole.

    If you honestly believe you should not be balding due to your genetics than there could very well be another and the answer is not taking medicaiton for the rest of your life because a doctor thinks it's a good idea.

    Genetic hair loss has been known to skip generations. If it does turn out to be dietary or environmental there is a possibility of some recovery.
