What helped ur TE other than minoxidil?

Hey guys, this is my scalp from this morning (with oil)

Nothing I'm doing is working anymore, not even supplements, I feel like I might as well just accept it.

I am turning 16 this year, my whole family have thick hair and eyelashes no point by keep bothering them asking why I don't have it.

I've been going thru deep grief and depression since 2022, I know the constant stress caused this, there's nothing I can do anymore.

Does it look really bad? I don't know 😢😰🥹.

Possible cause of hair loss.

Hey guys just wanted to see if maybe I could be right orrr wrong, so back in 2025 summer around June to March, I had a horrible stomach ache,basically, i was on my period, the pain was SOO SEVERE not to mention the heat was 30+ degrees 😰, i was laying in the bathtub literally crying, I also had bad diarrhea..And then after that

I've had random stomach aches which eventually led me to quitting proccesed food, fizzy drinks and oily fried food, the stomach aches and constipation got better, but way before i started the limit diet my hair FELL OUT, soo badlyy!!! got insane dandruff, which took at least 3 months to get rid of it.

Both the stomach aches and dandruff come back sometimes, definitely better than before. I was just wondering if that one horrible moment has caused my body to attack my hair follicles? I've been going thru grief and depression since 2022, and my hair has NEVER fallen like this. My body has never betrayed me 😢🫂.

My hair is slowly growing back, just a bit concerned about the stomach aches (I'm extremely deficient in vitamin D)

Hey guys just wanted to know if anybody else's hair or maybe even new growth has been appearing maybe yellowish or lighter than their original normal hair colour.

My hair colour is black and new hairs seem to be blonde??

No idea, really hope it's not something else that's bad. 😥🥹

Hey guys..thought id just vent a bit here, so I'm really upset,devastated, actually. It's been nearly 2 YEARS. since last year, my hair has been falling out non-stop. this is what it looks like with oil on it. I've tried iron tablets, oiling, fixing my posture.eating clean and red meat. literally nothing is working. all I'll let yk that ever since late 2022 I've been going thru intense depression and grief and it only really stopped around start of 2025, but than again I went thru an horrible stress stage again.

It doesn't really fall from the temples, just a lott of thinning from the middle. People around me keep making jokes about how I'd look with no hair at all. My classmates have pinned me at the top of their board as the teasing subject, just because of my scalp.

I don't know what to do anymore.

I'm only 15, turning 16 this year, and the doctors keep telling me to just stop stressing. How?? I'm going to be bald. 🥹
