    GlossaryTemporal Hair Loss (hair loss at temples)

    gradual hair thinning at the temples

    Temporal hair loss, also known as temporal alopecia or thinning hair at the temples, refers to the gradual loss of hair in the temple regions of the scalp. This condition can be caused by various factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, or certain medical conditions. It is often an early sign of androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness) and can be addressed through treatments like topical minoxidil, oral medications, or lifestyle changes.

      The user, who experienced hair loss at the temples due to psoriasis at 17, is now 21 and considering treatment options. They are inquiring about using minoxidil once a day, whether non-AGA hair loss will persist after stopping minoxidil, and if alternative remedies like Detumescence therapy, rosemary and peppermint oils, and microneedling could be sufficient.
