The degree of shedding with AGA varies with the severity of AGA. It is important to eliminate any other or additional causes of hair loss that may be contributing to your loss.
Miniaturized hairs by definition become thinner and shorter (they decrease in size from about 70 microns down to 20 microns in size). This miniaturization which is the definition of AGA can be slowed or reversed with minoxidil and or Finasteride.
98% of hair loss in men is genetic and it can be precipitated by stress and accelerated by stress. Other diseases can also contribute to the hair loss such as you report here
