Okay so, I am almost 19 and a half, and recently I've been quite worried about me losing my hair early. Mostly because my dad who is now late 50s and completely bald has told me he started to lose his hair when he was 20.
-My grandfather on my dads side is in his early 80s and is also completely bald, I'm not too sure when he started to lose it, I think it was a fair bit later than my dad.
-My dads brother is 60 and has a full head of hair, and his hairline looks roughly like mine, similar color too, but quite different pattern.
-My half-brother (from my dads side) who is 34 has a full head of hair, with a hairline that looks roughly like mine, but very different color and pattern.
-On my Mums side, she has no brothers but, my grandfather is in his 80's and has a good amount of hair (thinning alot but its there). And i've looked through some family photos and no males on my mums side lose their hair young, and most keep some hair into their old age.
Now as for me, my hair has the color of my fathers (though hard to tell), but it looks like it follows the general pattern of my mothers, considering where it parts and the protruding temple areas etc. I look like my father in most respects but with features of my mother (skin and hair placement over the body).
The reason I'm worrying now is that when i run my hands through the top of my hair (testing as it were) I find sometimes more hair comes out than should, sometimes nothing in my hands, but sometimes 1, sometimes 2, sometimes 4. It freaks me out when I gently pull at my hair sometimes and i have like 3 hairs between my fingers usually from the front. Second of all there's no way to know for sure, but the front of my hairline looks thinner than usual.
All in all i'm not sure, I would like some peace of mind one way or the other. Advise me.
