Hi guys,
I'm 26 years old. When I wash my hair in the morning I see quite a lot of it left in the sink. This has been happening during the past 3-4 months and my hair has definitely thinned during this time. I had thick hair about six months ago!! When my hair is wet you can see a lot of my scalp [pics provided below].
I've finally booked an appointment with the doc tomorrow to establish what is causing my hair loss. During these past 3-4 months I have noticed that I've been having acne breakouts far more than I usually do as well - I think there is a chance of my hair loss happening due to poor nutrition, but I also know there is a chance that this could be DHT related
Another thing perhaps worth mentioning is I suffer from dandruff and my scalp is very dry at times.
Recently I have been looking online for possible treatments. Seems like there's a lot of scams out there, but those that seem to work, I have heard some horrible story's regarding the side effects of some of the drugs. This is really depressing me.
If this hair loss turns out to be DHT related, what is the best solution with minimum side effects? Even if it means holding onto my current hair without regrowth. Please bare in mind I am still researching and am new to this hair loss topic, so I'd really value feedback from people who are dealing with this problem, have tried products/solutions and are more educated on this than me.
Many thanks!
