dionyabreu,It is very important to call and schedule an appointment for an evaluation by a hair loss specialist or dermatologist/dermpathologhist. That should shed a lot of light on what is the cause of your thinning. All the best,

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Individuals with hair loss require a full examination to determine the diagnosis. This includes review of the entire medical hsitory, careful examination of the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes and any other area with hair loss (ie body hair, etc) and often review of blood tests. DHT has no role in eyebrow growth or loss for most young individuals.

You should see a doctor and get yourself checked out. The doctor can look for miniaturization of the hairs on your head and possibly get a HAIRCHECK test to see if there is scalp balding
