I lost 50 lbs within 11 months, but now hair is thinning on top of head..does rapid weight loss cause hair los?

Im 26 yr old guy, beginning about 2 months ago for the first time in my life i noticed that i can start seeing my scalp through my hair in the light!!! prior to this i had lost 50 lbs within id say 10 - 11 months..(vigirous excercise, supplements, not eating as much junk, etc). wel i feel great because of that, but now my hair is thinning on the top and im really scared that it wont grow back!





could this rapid weight loss have caused this hair thinning ?? or do u tink i was going to lose my hair anyways and coincidentally it just started showing a few months after all my weight loss??





TIMELINE: (25 years old) i started actively trying losing weight. 11 months later i am 50 lbs lighter (from 185 now at 135). about 3 - 4 months later i start noticeing this thinning on the top of my head (for the first time in my life). ive never had issues with hair thinning EVER before (im 26 now), and i dont know if it runs in my genetics because i was adopted.





So will i be lucky and it will start growing back to its original fullness? or am i SOL?/ im really scared ive always had a full head of hair but now its sort of noticable! it comes out when i am in the shower , shampooing it, running my hand through it..when i go to style it etc..


i have dyed it before on a semi regular basis but now i dont. i also put a little gel in it. but again, ive never had this problem in all 26 years of my life up until 3 months ago when i began noticing this. if this is the sacrifice i have to make for the weight loss..then id rather be 180 lbs like i was b4 and get my hair back!! im 5' 9' and asian too. please tell me that this is only temporary and its going to grow back! oh and one more thing i was unders a lot of stress during that time period of weight loss to but i have been stress free for months nowI lost 50 lbs within 11 months, but now hair is thinning on top of head..does rapid weight loss cause hair los?
ok I didn't read all that you wrote but there is no direct link between hair loss and diet if you had a healthy diet ie exercising and eating well.


If you been starving yourself and eating only poultry it's normal that your body lacking vitamins make you have hair loss. Go get some vitamins at pharmacy, there are special ones for hair nutriments and watch you are eating, don't cut on the red meat, fish, veggies, eggs.


Oh and I frogot to add that at 26 it's normal to be losing hair already
