suffering from premature hair loss?

I am a young lad. And I am suffering from hair-loss. Its really troubling me. I am almost bald now. I tried for treatment but it didn't work. Can anyone suggest me how to get rid of this prob? Please suggest me any medicine if you can? If there is any natural remedy then please let me know.

I have just read an interesting answer that DHT (testosterone) is responsible for hair loss because it blocks the hair follicles thus stopping hair from growing/choking off the follicles. Well i'm a 22 year old female experiencing some hair loss after having my son almost 2 years ago. I realize that at first it's normal to have excessive hair loss after the birth of a child because of all the hormones but it has not returned to my pre pregnancy state. My hair extremely thin and my scalp is even visible.

My question is how can i eliminate testosterone from my body and when i do will that prevent hair loss or restore the hair that i have lost? Does increasing estrogen mean decreasing testosterone and if it does how can i increase estrogen? Which is easier. Someone mentioned on here that Oat grass will help lower testosterone levels?

i'd really like my thick healthy hair again as opposed to being half bald and having thin disgusting damaged hair at just 22.

Any natural remedies for alopecia?

I am slowly losing my hair because of seborrheic dermatitis and am wanting to know if there are any natural remedies which can stop the hair loss and stimulate the cells in the affected area to grow hair back.

off for the last few months could it be the lower dose and the weaning off or the hormones themselves that are causing this her hair is brittle and dry too any info would be a great help as she is also suffering from night sweats and hot flashes during the day needless to say it is rather unpleasant around here(to say the least)

I am 44, premenopausal, stage IIB, one positive node, 4 removed, not sure yet on Her2 or estrogen +, get pathology report next week. Just had a masectomy 5 days ago. I am starting to read all about treatments and starting to get freaked out with all my body might have to go through!! I am set to start chemo in about 4 weeks and now I learn that on top of everything else, weight gain is on the list too!! I am already 40 lbs overweight and can't afford to get any heavier!! I'm just so overwhelmed with everything. I need the real low down on breast cancer side affects. Also, is this it for menopause? Will I menstruate after treatments end? Again, not only do you have to go through side effects of this dreaded disease, you have to endure the symptoms of menopause!! The hair loss is enough to endure. How can you have a positive attitude when you're bald, fat, having hot flashes, fatigued, scarred, nauseous, etc.?! Please help with any advice you may have! Thanks.

Thinning hair, shorter cycles, shorter duration of periods, crying spells, mood swings like I have never had before, UNWANTED facial hair….and I’m in my 30’s, have had many children. Tests show I am not going through any kind of change yet my body is telling me differently. What is going on? If its not estrogen loss, what else can this be?
