Consider your current age Make a note of the extent of hair loss in male members on both sides of your family, regardless of the age in which the problem started

However, pictures are important both for your future doctors as well as for you to gauge your speed of hair loss. Take pictures in indirect natural daylight. Take pictures with the hair combed back to reveal the full extent of your hair loss. Front view and side view must include till at least the eyebrows. Eyebrows act as a point of reference for the hairline. The top view must include the complete head (both ears included). Back view and a view of the donor area of the scalp with the hair parted. Repeat the same exercise at regular interval. An interval of two months will be fine. •After taking a few pictures, repeat the entire exercise with your wet hair •Consult your family physician or an unbiased physician about the cause of hair loss.
