[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 18yo ds definitely has a receding hairline. The derm recommended Rogaine. I think he is using it. He is pretty bothered by it buy my message to him is to figure out how to start owning it because it's inevitable. His dad and grandfather and greatgrandfather gave him this gene.

He found someone who cuts his hair like he likes it so that helps. I told him it's not as uncommon as he thinks and he will meet more guys in college with the same situation.

MPB is not normal. We have normalized it but it is connected with significant health problems. It is linked to worse heart health and general inflammation. He needs to cut down on his caffeine intake, reduce the amount of white carbs and fast food he eats and take magnesium and iron.

Just because the cause is genetic does not mean it is inevitable. He might have a genetic risk of low magnesium or inflammation from eating salt. Hair loss is the symptom of what is happening in the body. No other mammal loses hair like this - if your dog was going bald, you would take them to the vet.[/quote]
