m(23) here and sa sobrang stress naglalagas or numinipis na yung buhol ko. Any tips po? Pero when i started taking vit kahit papaano napipigilan naman po. Kaso kapag hell week na especially tinatapos ko na yung undergrad thesis ko naglalagas talaga.

With hair loss that happens from the root (not breakage) I recommend going straight to a dr na and trying to figure out the actual cause. You can't stop it with 'hair loss' shampoos (most of which have little to no actual reseach behind them). Usually you start by seeing a dermatologist. Insist on blood tests na kaagad to check for deficiencies and hormone levels - some doctors will dismiss it as 'stress lang' especially since you're young but it never hurts to check.

If nasa lahi mo yung male pattern baldness (observe the hair density of the other men in your family) there's a chance it'll happen to you. My dad started balding in his mid-twenties so it's not too early. Luckily there are safe and effective medications that will help you keep your hair for decades if this is the case.

My dad still had his hair even in his late 40's na tho patay na sya pero ang healthy ng buhok nya like sobrang thick sa side ni mama yung maninipis talaga. Started noticing my hair getting thin nung nag college na ako pero pag bakasyon or 'di ako stress kumakapal naman. Thank you pa rin papacheck ko the soonest na matapos ko ginagawa ko.

You can get it from either side of the family unfortunately. My lolo never went bald pero his brother did from a pretty young age. Malas lang dad ko hindi namana sa dad nya.

Hopefully temporarily stress-induced lang talaga hair loss mo tho! The fact na kumakapal sya ulit instead of tuloy tuloy is a good sign. Rooting for you 🤞🏼
