Hair Loss
Posted: 09-05-04 01:34am

I am a 16 year old male. In march, I noticed my hair falling out relatively rapidly and has continued at a steady pace. What can I do to stop it, and is this premature balding?

This could be as simple as stress. Or it could be alopecia areata which is an autoimmune deffiancy disease. It occurs when your body begins to attack the hair follicles, most commonly on the head, but it can happen anywhere on the body. I had this when I was 2 my hair fell out in large patches all over my head. It did, however come back but it took about 1 yr. You should see a doctor so they can determine if you will need to see a specialist or not. I hope this helps good luck Wink
