How did this happen fast? If it keeps worsening this quickly will I be almost bald soon? Biopsy temple in January 2016 "could indicate early AGA". But it is worsening quickly. My friends notice difference. Thought AGA gradual. Seen 3 derms. First 2 said use Rogaine. Didn't try to find cause. GP and endo did blood work found a Vitamin D level of 11. It is progressing and my left temple and part of hairline is receding the worst. Taking Viviscal and tried Rogaine but makes my scalp burn. Help.

Answer: Hair loss in a woman First, you should rule out the presence for some organize cause of your hair loss such as medications (birth control pills) or thyroid disease etc... A full blood workup should be done on you first. Assuming that you are clear from such blood tests, then let's discuss female genetic balding. This usually happens in families on the female side, so look to your female relatives (mother, aunts, grandmothers, sisters) and see if anyone has it. These women will give you insights into the cause of your problem. Assuming that you cleared causes for this, then there are two procedures that are often offered by us. (1) for thinning, scalp micropigmetation. My two daughter-in-laws had it done and look great. One is actually my future daughter-in-law and is getting married next month. (2) The second options is hair transplantation. This technique should not necessarily be used for thinning and your donor area must be examined for miniaturization which, if present, will not get you the results you may need. You can call my office and arrange a telephone consultation with me and I can go over the blood tests you need.
