Hi,
If you do end up getting a testosterone test and have high testosterone this can be due to insulin resistance (which causes high testosterone and high testosterone is one cause for hair falling out).
You can research the signs of insulin resistance on the Tube (youtube). Most doctors do not test for insulin resistance or consider it a cause of diseases, but insulin resistance causes many common health conditions that we commonly believe are lifelong conditions or doctors don't know the underlying cause and with new findings recently, it turns out insulin resistance has a lot to do with common health problems, including hair falling out.
There is great information on how you can reverse insulin resistance if you feel you have the symptoms just through diet and if that is the culprit, that will reverse your hair falling out.
It is common to see hairs here and there, but if you see it all the time and notice it often throughout the day then it usually means something is going on.
Don't worry, the underlying causes for hair falling out are pretty common and fixable. Beyond insulin resistance, it can be due to lacking minerals, vitamins and can be due to stress as well as hormones like some other people have commented.
I wish you all the best! (don't worry, it will take a lot of hair falling out to get bald patches. Mine has been falling out for probably 10 years and I don't have any bald patches - but just now learning what may be causing it for me so working on reversing it myself ; ))
Oh thank goodness
Excessive masturbation does not do sh*t dude, quit spreading lies and pushing your shitty beliefs on other people.
Hi! I'm 20 years old boy, and losing my hair (about 200 per day). In the last 3 years, my hair density is noticeably decreased. I'm also having dandruff problem. What can I do?
200 a day is not normal. 60-100 is what is normal. My hairloss started exactly like that, 150, 200 a day (which actually means that you always find fallen hairs everywhere you are) and dandruff. I started to use special shampoos and hairlotions and I got rid of the dandruff but my hair went on getting thinner. I was 18 at the time, I had already lost the hair on my temples during puberty but had been told that was only a mature hairline developing. But hairloss resumed a couple of years later. So I believe if you've reached the point where you lose that many you're going to be bald, bottom of the story.
Don't get your hopes up. When you're at 200 a day, to which you must add all those you don't see, you're getting bald. When I noticed that I lost a lot of hairs, the drain in the shower was full and they fell while I was working at the table, whenever I combed through them some fell out, I counted 100-150, but soon afterwards in the mirror I noticed that you saw the skin through them on top of my head. I had lost hairs on my temples earlier, towards the end of puberty, and I was 23 when I started to lose hair on my head. It still took a long time for I was really bald only when I turned 30.
200 a day is a lot and the rest (your mother's family not being bald and also your young age) probably means nothing: you're going bald. Plus, once you notice it it has already gone on for months or years. It is well possible that you're losing your hair since you're 13 or 14 (for you it's obviously linked to hormonal changes during puberty, in some boys it starts as early as 12, at the very beginning of puberty). If in addition to that you've got a lot of body hair, don't look further. I don't mean to pose as an expert which I am not but my brother was an early bald so I've been a direct witness. For him it became visible on the top of his head when he was 14, he had an early and massive puberty, with his first body hair when he was 9, growth spurts and penis develoment from there on and development of muscle mass when he was 11. At 11 he already had grown some chest hair and also had to shave. When ha was 12, he had also reached the "mature" hairline, with his temples gone bald. So for him hairloss on the rest of his head, marked the end of puberty, it probably went on right after he had lost the hairs on his temples. Age 14 he had a noticeable receding hairline and you began to see through the hairs on his vertex. Bald spot there at 15, Bald pate at 17 except for a bundle of hairs in the front part which he lost shortly after. After that progress was much slower but he went on losing hair and his crown got lower and lower and receded further. Despite all of it he never wanted to shave it away but today he's 24 and he's only got some hairs left on the rear of his head so he decided to shave eventually.
