Asked By:snoochy83 in Portland, OR

About a year ago my hair suddenly started to shed. I noticed lots of fine short hairs. My hair thickness reduced but I had no bald patches, just general thinning. I went to a hair specialist who was unsure about whether this was female pattern baldness or temporary. I have lots of fine short hairs around three inches long coming through everywhere especially the front of my head but I'm still loosing around 40 a day. My temples are thinnest and the sides too. All my lab results were normal. I'm 34 and female.
