20 Years Old. Hair thinning from 18. What do I do?

[Pablo Diablo]

Hey everyone. I started noticing hair loss in the temple area about two years ago (18) but never really thought to do anything about it but now I've noticed it (or rather, it was pointed out to me ) thinning around the crown and I wanna do something to stop it!

My dad and one of his brothers lost their hair through male pattern baldness during their 20s but his other brother and my grandfather still have full hair (although my grandad's is very thin). No one on my mum's side has male pattern baldness - her brother and father have thin hair but no signs of male pattern baldness.

What course of action should I take? I might make an appointment with my doctor to see if I can get some generic finasteride on a private prescription.

you've caught it in time, brother. i'd personally say nizoral and finasteride asap, if you don't see anything decent after about a year then try minoxidil.

Your hair looks almost exactly like mine the way you're losing it. The good news is that our type of hair loss is slowly over time so we can catch it better. Really, as everyone says, the big 3 is the way to go.

Finasteride, minxidil, and nizoral. I started it about a month ago and, while it takes a long time to see results, it makes you feel good to know you're doing all you can about it.

By the way, it doesn't look bad and no one will really notice you're thinning unless they look for it.

Some points to check

There could be several reasons like

food habits

exercising regularly is a must

hormone levels

Blame on it the genes

water intake

further you can get more information searching for "health tips". I suggest taking raw vegetables and fruits. also exercise is a must everyday. one hour work can bring a lot of changes.

thanks
