Answers:
hey dude!.
im 22 and feel like my hairline is starting to recede!.

the more you worry your hair is falling out the more it will happen, try to stress less - your gf doesnt help, emotionally detach from your gf!. dont dump her, just dont let her stress you out - when you feel yourself getting stressed over her crap learn to take control of the situation and do what makes you happy - even if it means walking away from her and telling her youll talk about it later or hang the phone up and turn it off for the nite (you kno she will call be if shes an attention seeker)!.

any girl that causes you trouble is not a good relationship!. If its affecting your physical wellbeing, its definitely not good!.

however, is your mothers father bald!? ive heard that you get baldness from your mothers genes and it comes from her father!.

if not - get rid of the gf - try going to the doctor and asking for something called "proscar" - its a drug that stops DHT from attaching to the hair folicles and causing your hair to die and fall out!. (im not sure of its legal standing in some states/countries though)

Things to do - learn to not care about the gf trying to stress you out and stop obsessing over your hair, dont run your hands through your hair and dont comb it etc!.!. pat dry your hair after showers, dont ruff it up with the towel!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tell your GF to take a hike!.!.!.!. You might get more than your hair back!. Hey If this does not get any better in a couple of weeks or so go see your Doc!. There could be a lack of hormones so be smart about it there are a lot of bad things that causes your hair to fall out!. SEHWww@Answer-Health@Com

it sounds like your stressing out!.!.people have different ways to deal with stress and it someitmes it isnt there choice!. if you look up on the interent sites it even says so!. i one time actually expierenced some symptoms of what i thought was wrong with me!.!. when really i was fine!.!.
human bodies can do strange things!.
your hair will probably grow back after you stop stressing!. just try not to think about it and it should be good!. but if your really worried i suggest going to the doctor =]

Its from stress, or it might be from natural hair loss!.!.!.

So get a cream that reduces that!.!.NOW!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ok, I have no backup on this, but here's some advice I got once!. It's easy to try, you've got nothing to lose and costs nothing!.

My economics professor was explaining how really shampoo, soap and shaving cream are just specializations of the same commodity product - soap - and mentioned that if you ever start losing your hair, stop using shampoo and switch to bar soap!. This guy was sincere and had a HUGE head of hair!. I wouldn't bet on it but who knows!?!!?

I also believe someday they're going to find that hair gel is good for your hair!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i will tell you something,
many girls and guys at that age only care of what they love physically, not emotionally
if she really loves you, she wouldnt care if you have a full set of hair or if your bald!.
she should care of how you are mentally
to me personally, girls and guys at that age arent worth for true love
be true to yourself and dont listen to others
p!.s: baldness is mostly genetic and is passed by the mom not the dad, just look at your moms familyWww@Answer-Health@Com

honestly i think its best that you let all the stressful aspects of your life go!. although having a girlfriend is great, having a healthy and stress free life is better!. try evaluating yourself and your relationship and ask yourself is it really worth it to be hold on to something that effects your health!. the cure for your hair loss is this, 1 remove all stress related things from your life!. and 2!. just do you man!. do things your way and by your concionsWww@Answer-Health@Com

male pattern baldness DOES start at your age in some people!.

when looking at the men in your family, remember that baldness runs on the mother's side!. are your maternal uncles bald!? even if they are not, remember that your mother has XX chromosomes--one or both carrying the genes for baldness--and you have one X from her!. sounds like you got the unlucky one!. before you try any products, you should see what a doctor recommends; and whether this is even male pattern baldness at all!.

good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If your g/f is giving you that much stress so you go bald over her:kick her out and take some time of!.
You have been overstressed way to long!.
Do not get involved right away!.
Your hair will grow back:seen it happen with one of my friends:also woman trouble all day long!.
He got rid of her and regained his hair
Good luck breaking up and restarting to grow your hair

try talking to ur girl friend on what about her is bothering u and if she continues then the best thing is to leave her because at 17 im preety sure u dont want to end up bald or with veryy little hairWww@Answer-Health@Com

tell your parents and they can take you to a hair doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well first off lets eliminate old wise tales!. Male Pattern baldness does not originate from your mothers side!. That is plain and simple NOT true!. Genetically its impossible to find where male pattern baldness originates from as you have genes from both parents combined in you!. Male pattern baldness could actually start at you in your family and continue with your kids or you may be the only one in your entire family that experiences the problem!.

Commonly thinning hair and loosing hair is caused by dihydrotestosterone or DHT!. After puberty your body stops producing large amounts of testosterone is sometimes converted to dihydrotestorone!. DHT only commonly affects one part of your body the hair follocles!. When it does your hair will permanently fall out and not return in that location!. You can PREVENT this by using such shampoo's like rogaine or equivilant!. Rogaine works in the matter of not reversing DHT but preventing it from damaging the actual hair follocales!. Rogaine will NOT regrow hair that has already been lost!. It will only prevent further hair from beeing lost!.

You may feel it to be embarrasing to purchase this but know you shouldn't as many men have bought it and used it!. It's nothing to be ashamed of!.

At 17 it is not uncommon to begin losing hair!. but as you describe you are loosing quite a bit of hair in clumps!. Although this shouldn't be a huge cause of concern it is worth discussing this with your parents and explain how much of a concern it is for you!. They should then take you to your family doctor for an examination and make sure its not something else!.

Good luck and remember loosing your hair and being bald is nothing to be ashamed of!. Most women will tell you that they care less whether their boyfriends or husbands are bald or not!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

seems a lot of us tend to lose some hair as we approach and/or proceed through the 20's!. often not serious; just a normal pregression!. Of course if male pattern baldness runs in a family that can be when it starts to take hold (or should I say let go)!. As well, stress can contribute o hair loss at most any age so you need to get a grip on the root causes and deal with them effectively!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
