Hi all, Its been a while since i have been on. Been

getting treated by a great Dr. in IL for the past

8 months and im starting to feel a lot better.

One problem...

Im a 26 year old male, and im experiencing quite

a bite of hair loss on the top of my head

since about 23. I suspect i have been sick with

lyme since 19 or earlier. Its strange, Baldness

doesnt run in my family too much, and i am one of

the youngest cousins, and the only one

experiencing this hair loss. Its quite

embarrassing for me, being so young, and i have

had EXTREMELY thick hair throughout my entire

life, until now. Anyone else experience this top

of the head thinning, or is it that im just

unluckily going bald?? Thanks all!

I'm a 33 yr old female. I've had hair loss with this disease too. But I'm not a man. I've spoken with a couple of others who've experienced this too.

Would you like me to move this to Medical, where you will get more feedback?

I would suggest trying Biotin and even dandruff shampoo. Worked for me! (I'm female)

Oh, yes please, I don't know how to move it there. And, I tried taking some expensive hair vitamins that didn't do much, honestly. Its funny, ya start to feel a little better and date, and your hair explodes out of your head, haha. We sure do fight the hard fight!
