Why is my hairline is lowering?

Hair Health

So yes, you read that right, my hairline is lowering, not receding.

Lately I've been finding random hairs growing out of my forehead about a quarter of an inch lower down my forehead than my hairline. I pluck them because they look weird and out of place. I have an average forehead that is balanced with my face proportions so not really wanting this change.

I'm not using any serums, no supplements or new treatments. We're in a hotel so I'm using their shampoo but it just seems like average, generic bottles in push pumps attached to the wall. I've been eating a lot of takeout since our house is under construction, so maybe the takeout is more nutritious than the food I usually cook? Even though I try to use lots of veggies and greens in my cooking.

Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Some kind of hormone imbalance?
