Hi, I recently noticed that my hair has been falling out onto my desk and when I clean my hair in the shower. It's not in clumps but enough to notice. I'm 24 years old, male, and up until recently, I've been very healthy. I've had a lot of stress over the last four months, stopped exercising, and started drinking more. What could be causing this hair loss?

I have a little pain in my urethra when pressure's applied. The pain started about two weeks ago when my penis was grabbed too hard. I haven't used any medication for it and haven't seen a doctor. My medical history is otherwise unremarkable. How long will the pain last, and is there anything I should do?

My husband has been a blood donor for over 3 years and has recently been rejected for donation due to low hemoglobin levels (Hgb 11.5, previously 14-15 in 2017). He has been experiencing fatigue and was found to be in tachycardia with a pulse of 141 before a stress test. His recent blood test showed Hgb 10.8. He has normal iron binding capacity but low iron levels. He has a history of Afib and a stent in 2006. What could be causing his anemia and tachycardia, and what should be the next steps in his treatment?
