Accepted Answer

Hair loss in 25 yo M: What is the pattern of hair loss?  Is it frontal, temporal and vertex like male pattern hair loss?  Family history of pattern hair loss?

Accepted Answer

Total hair loss: Hair loss from the entire scalp is a form of alopecia areata (aa), called alopecia totalis.  Alopecia areata can also cause hair loss over the entire body - alopecia totalis.  Aa is an autoimmune condition where the immune system cells attack hair follicles and cause hair to fall out.  There are treatments for aa.  Success depends on the extent of hair loss and how long the hairs are gone.

is there a treatment for hair loss?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on the type of hair loss.  If this is a genetic pattern of loss then there isn't much that will really keep you from losing more.  Other types may have an underlying problem that, if treated, will allow your hair to come back.  I would suggest seeing a dermatologist to help you sort it all out.
