A member asked:
I am experiencing hair loss. how can i tell if it's stress related or pattern baldness? can i get a prescription for generic propecia here?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hair loss. : Generally, male pattern baldness tends to be in a predictable pattern, such as the receding hairline or the clearing atop the head. Stress related hair loss is patchy and scattered in small circular areas. As well, early male pattern baldness tends to run in the men of the family. And hair lost during times of stress generally will come back.
