A member asked:
My hair has been falling out since sep 2011 . it started when i was going through hard times with family. my hair loss is in the front. will it grow?

Maybe: Sorry i can't be any more accurate in my prediction but hair loss is very common as a result of stress, both emotional & physiologic. To be safe, tell your family doc about your concerns and check out your thyroid as an abnormal thyroid can also cause hair loss. Excess (dihydro)testosterone can do so, too.
