Hi im 19 years old and experiencing hair loss. Help please!?

I'm losing lots of hairs a day, i know its natural to lose like 100 hairs a day but the amount im losing a day is ridiculous...its not really noticable to anyone else yet, but i know if i dont do anything now whilst its still early then it will begin to be noticable in the future. Any help aside from 'shave ur head' would be helpful thanks!

While nothing is absolutely carved in stone, the fact that you are 19 years of age and experiencing hair loss suggests that you may be genetically destined to fairly extensive pattern baldness. While several treatment options exist, at the present time, there is no cure, per se, for pattern hair loss. The spectrum of treatment options include pharmacotherapy (i.e. minoxidil and finasteride), non-drug-based options (those that include saw palmetto and other botanicals), surgical hair restoration, and prosthetics (sometimes called "hair replacement systems"). The future of hair loss treatment options (probably becoming available in eight to ten years) may add gene therapy, hair cloning, or some combination of these approaches. In the meantime, a person suffering from this disorder, especially a person as young as yourself, is best served by gathering as much objective information as possible, BEFORE making any decisions. The more you know, the better choices you will make. The only other thought I would add is that the treatment options that really work seem to work best in younger persons who are just starting to experience visible hair loss.

Take zinc! Read up about it first, too much is dangerous!

Americans are most deficient in zinc, do you have acne? Zinc is great for acne as well (if you have a dificiency)

If it is significant enough for you to be worried, see a doctor. There may be an underlying cause that needs to be treated.

You are stuck between a rock %26amp; a hard place. Men lose their hair due to a testosterone derivative called DHT. You have more of it, so yours is most likely going faster. You can take medications that block DHT (like Rogaine), but you will be sacrificing some of the effects testosterone has on your body. In other words, sexual side effects are common. So it is up to you to decide what to do.

This is all assuming that most of the hair your losing is from the front - i.e. you have a receding hair line. If you are losing hair from the crown of your head - this may be due to a fungal infection. See a dermatologist.
