05 Nov Is It Normal to Lose Hair in Your 30s? What’s Genetic, What’s Stress and What to Do About It
Prescription Medication Notice: Finasteride is a prescription medication and should only be prescribed and monitored by your healthcare provider. Possible side effects include sexual side effects and mood changes, including depression and, rarely, thoughts of suicide. Tell your doctor right away about any mood changes. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (U.S.) or contact local emergency services. Finasteride is not for use by women who are or may become pregnant, who should also avoid handling crushed or broken tablets. Do not start, stop or combine hair loss medications without medical advice.
Editorial Notice: This article is for general information and is not specific medical advice. Hair transplant surgery is a medical procedure with risks, and having surgery abroad adds considerations such as travel soon after surgery, follow-up care and what happens if complications occur.

It usually starts with a small moment. A photo from a family barbecue, a glance in the elevator mirror under harsh lighting, or a few more hairs on the pillow than you remember seeing before. Suddenly a question you never thought about in your 20s is on your mind every time you look in the mirror.
The 30s are a turning point for a simple reason. Genetic hair loss that quietly started in your 20s becomes visible, and life adds new pressure on top of it: a demanding career, broken sleep with a newborn, less time for training and meals on the run. Some of that hair loss is permanent and some of it is temporary, and the two need very different responses.
