Strange hairloss pattern
Dr,
I have been taking propecia for the past five years. About two years ago I began to notice that my hair was thinning in a diffuse manner. It began as lighter hair on the left hand side of my head and has progressed to an overall thinning. I have gone to a number of Dr.'s trying to find the cause. I suffer from dandruff and was prescribed Luxiq by a derm. Can dandruff lead to diffuse hair loss?
Joe,
The thinning you describe is probably related to a slow progression of male pattern hair loss. A thorough evaluation is required to be certain. Please visit www.baumanmedical.com for more information regarding scheduling an appointment for a hair loss evaluation.
Sincerely,
Dr. Bauman
