Is hair loss caused by certain medications usually reversible?
ThanksAnswer: hair loss due to medications in most cases is reversible when the medicine is stopped, but it might take a long time to come back, months. JG 3.1.06 • I’m a 24 year old male and I’ve recently noticed that my hair is starting to thin out at the front (the area directly above the CENTRE of my forehead). The temples and everywhere else is still very full. I haven’t noticed much hair loss in the bath, and I don’t have a family history of baldness. What could be causing this? Is it normal for that area to be thinner than the other areas? ThanksAnswer: it most likey is male pattern hair loss and can occur in many different patterns. As long as you are not having some allergic reaction or hair loss due to some medication, then starting a hair regrowth product would be reasonable.
