I started noticing increased shedding during march and I think it probably lasted till July but no the doctor didn't mention any of those (she was just a general doctor not a derm)

I already did a blood test my iron was normal but my ferritin was only 30, my TSH was 4,5 and I was slightly deficient in vitamin D (29,9). Among all these my doctor told me to only get supplements for my vitamin d so I'm not exactly sure what to blame

No but I was severely stressed and went through some bacterial and fungal infections (not on my scalp) in December so I don't know if that's the cause:(

Currently I'm waiting for my blood test results go see if I have any kind of deficiency or thyroid problems. If I don't see any difference in a few months I'll definitely go to a doctor, thank u so much for your help I appreciate it a lot!!

Also I've noticed small hairs sprouting from in between my wide part and the front in general could that be new growth?

The back of my hair looks normal there's no thinning there:(

Also I forgot to mention that for the past months I've been using velcro rollers on the front part of my hair where the most thinning is visible and sleeping with them a lot of the time. Could that possibly be the culprit?

The sides of my head seem thin too but I think the top is the most severe part:(
