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?

I too am sixteen and experiencing the same
symptoms...Have u heard any new news on
your condition?
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
