im 16 years old and ever since i started
college , i have been under alot of stress
because i wasn't used to it at first .
During the past month my friends have
noticed that there was a small bald patch
on my head, my mother has also pointed out
that i have lost alot of hair for the past

ovaries" i am very aware of the symptoms
but i don't understand whats with the
patch , some people who know me have been
asking about it and have noticed it ...

Wow. You started college really early,
huh?
Hair loss can occur with stress. Have you
changed your diet at all? Are you getting
a good night's rest? How many hours do
you sleep each night?

yea over here you start college early..
well i don't think i changed my diet in
any particular way ?
well at that time not many as i had too
much problems to deal with like
sudden change of surroundings like
college.. family... friends..
you know ><
now i do try to get 8 ours + but its hard
since i either over sleep and can't get
back to sleep later or i just can't get up
cause i feel so worn out.
I tend to end up sleeping over 12 hours
><!
i tend to worry alot especially exams , or
problems ...
what's wrong with me?
even though i know about the illness i
have ..
i don't think it is relevant to my hair
loss...

You might want to check in with a
dermatologist who is an expert on skin and
hair issues. These doctors specialise in
diagnosing hair disorders and you might
get some more objective feedback with
medical basis.

I with u on this, I also started college
when I was 16, and its very stressful. I
cut my hair n the stress has been making
my hair come out. Im also seeing a
dermatologist.
I would recommend trying Nioxin Follicle
booster on the patch. Its made of natural
viatimins, its a gel u apply. It irritates
the area applied to, to promote hair
growth.
Ive used it on my hairline n Im happy to
say its growing back.
Use whatever the dermatologist perscribes,
but I know alot of people who have used
this n its worked.
Dont use the other products of Nioxin just
the follicle booster..
