Hi i am suffering with balding, i deal with alot of stress and i dont know if that is the cause of it. what can i take to help regrow my hair?

May be natural.: Losing hair can be a difficult thing to deal with. Some of it is natural, especially if there is male-pattern-balding in your family. Other times, you could be suffering from an autoimmune process called alopecia areata, or some other type of alopecia. I would highly suggest that you see your primary care doctor, or a dermatologist to get a definitive answer.
