I (male, 24) have been experiencing rapid hair loss and thinning over the past two months.
Symptoms:
1. When I run my hand through my hair about 4-7 hairs fall out. I am well above the average of 80-100 lost hairs a day.
2. My hair has lost thickness, particularly around my hair line.
I have had pretty major lifestyle change over the past two months. I have moved to a city where I don't know anyone and I have a job that is mostly in isolation. I am very socially isolated. (Why I'm doing this job in the first place is another story -- let's not go there.) These "stress factors" could contribute to the hair loss I've been experiencing. I also have not been eating as much as I typically do. I could up protein intake in order to achieve stronger hair. I have been exercising consistently, typically once a day.
Diet is as follows:
Breakfast: coffee
Lunch: soup
Dinner: heavy protein dish, typically chicken
What is the best approach to recouping a full head of hair for someone like me? It seems like my diet is really weak and is standing in the way of healthier hair.
I've been using Solban in the mornings, but it hasn't seemed to do perform all that well for me. I've just started applying almond oil and nettle oil at night.
Is a dermatologist visit the best next step?
Any ideas appreciated.
