I have a different theory on hairloss.....
(although I am not a doctor, I only play one on GFY)
Demodex mites. There is more oil (food to them) on the TOP of your head due to gravity and the fact that most people spend a good 16 hours a day upright.... so they tend to hang where the food is.
Eventually they kill your follicle from iritation and their waste products.
Young people have stronger immune systems that better deal with all the bugs we have on us. This is why you'll see old people with more fungal and bacterial infections on their skin.
Here's three jammed into a single hair follicle.
Soo Choker.. you might investigate this and look into some shampoo that claims to control demodex to protect your new hair. Btw... from what I read on the web, you can go to some dermatologists and they'll scope your scalp and you can check out how "infested" you are with these things.
