Am I going Bald?

[peter86]

Hi, I recently noticed where my hair gorws on the back of my scalp, a small patch. I know its normal, but the thought maybe mine was bigger. I get so paranoid i make myself sick. Btw i recently these photos are after i recently shaved my head. I also have a cowlick at the front but i doubt that makes a difference.

I just need a second opinon. Thanks

Hey, I can see what you mean about it being a little thinner but it's hard to say for sure, how did you first notice it?

A friend of mine Said I might be, but some people say no. I just want to ask people who ahve been there before.

family history for male pattern baldness?

the 'patch' is normal, but it does look like you're thinning a little on top (although it is hard to tell from these photos - take some more of other parts of your head for comparison). when your hair is longer it won't be noticable. I would monitor this for a few months, but relax in the mean time.

yes, you are losing your hair. who knows how fast and who knows how much you'll lose, but there are early signs there. i'm sure if these guys had seen your hairline shape earlier they would have agreed, nothing wrong with the hairline really but when you have thinning on the crown as well they go hand in hand.

see a doctor before coming to any conclusion.Your hair looks great ,a norwood 0.Since your father is bald,may be his male pattern baldness pass to you.What about your mother's side?

you got 50-50 chance.But the pictures may be deceiving,it looks like your crown is thinning.Your temples looks intact just like mine.How old are you ?

 

[peter86]

Im 20 years old.

your right temple seems worse than left, thats another sign of male pattern baldness (Well mine happened the same way)

 

[peter86]

Is that because I have a cowlick?

if you does not respond to finasteride then try Dutt,if dutt fails then try minoxidil.There are plenty of supplement out there that can halt your hair loss,they include both proven and unproven.It is up to yours what you choose.If everythings fails then count on hm.

i retract my previous statement, i wouldn't worry about it now if i were you, just take another picture in 6 months and compare.

That is a strange cowlick, it's thinnish right the way through it, even at the side. I'm not so sure that it's M.P.B.
