Im am currently 24, both my parents are sixty, with super thick hair still. The past three years i was stressed due to a new job, was dieting, took Yasmin for birth control, used a left over home straightener (relaxer) that i had saved for future use, was in a wedding and had a dresser basically use a curling iron, more like burning iron, and i had wisdom teeth surgery that had nerve damage and i could not eat for several months and still took birth control (Yasmin) during my healing of my curly hair, I was confident that anything i would do would never cause baldness, however, here i am with excessively thin hair at the front and sides of my head. i’ve already been told that i look like i’m in my 30’s instead of 20’s. Will my hair ever restore to its normal thickness? right now it is growing out straight and i have bald spots in the back of my head and the sides of my head are extremely thin and straight, I do not see hair filling in aprocess, and to top it all off I have trichotillomania. Obviously I have issues, but due to the excessive thickness and volume t the sides and front of my head only in the back. i have been eating food with flaxseed. is there anything else i can do to help my hair grow back, and will there ever be a chance for full restoration?

To answer you, I would have to write a book. Yes, you have issues and what you described in your questions cover almost every imaginable problem a woman can have with their hair. If you are honest in this communication, you need to get good medical care. If you have bald spots in the middle of normal hair, then you could have alopecia areata. If you are pulling my leg to test my ability to sort through such complexity, I am sure that some of the readers will not sympathize with your dilemma. Good luck to you.
