Shedding from Donor/Sides/Back of head
Can anyone guestimate why can one shed a lot of hair daily from the back of the head/sides (where there wont be any baldness)? this is happening for over a year now, and it isnt stopping.
I also lose a lot of chest hair, which grows back though, sides and donor grow back as well i think... so i'm rolling out alopecia artae and telogen effivilium...
what else?

There are a few, including cold hands/feet, fatigue, weight gain, but you should conduct some tests to see if this is actually a problem. One simple test is taking your waking body temp. Do this first thing when you wake up prior to getting out of bed. Your body should not move around too much, which may increase your temp. Take your temp for three consecutive days and log the results. If your body temp is consistently under 97.6f you may be hypothyroid. Mine has been around 97 for over two years. Iodine supplementation (Lugol's) seems to help. You should also order an adrenal stress test to make sure that you are not suffering from any adrenal issues. Again, mine have been low for a while. The adrenals and thyroid work together.
