11 yo DS Losing Hair?

Around his hairline he seems to have lost a bit of hair.

His scalp is extremely dry too.

Should I be worried? What could it be?

He has quite thick hair.

Is he otherwise well?
It could be something simple for eg iron deficiency anaemia or Vit D deficiency.
If he was my son, I'd take him to the GP to get checked over.

Yes he is otherwise well. Will definitely take him to GPs.
