I’m new to this forum and I got a couple of questions I want to ask and I would appreciate it if possibly a doctor could also answer them.
My Story:
My hair loss started around early 17, started with my front temples receding, back of the crown and a little in the middle. I don't have a drain plug so I washed my hair in the sink and i would see 30-40+ hairs in the sink every morning. Everytime i would brush my fingers through my hair 10 times I would lose 5-10 hairs, and if I were to pull just a portion of my hair i would see 5 hairs in my hand.
I am now 21, 22 in january and I think my thinning has slower down but I want to be sure. For the pasted 5 months, I used SAW Palmetto (320mg) everyday and use Rogaine in mornings and night. If I were to wash my hair into the sink I would find 10-20 hairs, I don't notice alot of hairs on my pillow, if I pull at my hair I'll see maybe 1 or 2 at max but most the time no hairs at all! also I notice if I run my fingers through my hair 10 times i may see 1-3 hair fall out but most the time no hairs at all! Also in class I don’t see random hairs of mine on the desk like I used to, I can play iwht my hair and not see alot fall out, I can also mess with it while its wet and not see alot fall out.

So here are my questions
Should I be considering a hair transplant? (I was thinking around June 2013)
Is 10-20 hairs falling out when I wash excessive or normal?
Should I consider buying a Laser Comb to thicken my hair?
What other products can I use to increase density?
Does it seem like my hairloss is going to get worse?
Is the redness around my head normal? (I did just take a shower)
If someone with hairloss experience or a transplant doctor could answer my questions, I would GREATLY appreciate it, Thanks!
