Just some info on me. Im 20 years old. I don't use any oral medications, or topical ointments. In fact the only thing I use is regenpure, and nioxin tickening hair conditioner. The pics I posted below is from today and I just want to know how severe my hair loss is. Ive previously posted before some pictures of myself a couple of months ago and people said my hair was fine but after I got another short haircut day before yesterday, I noticed just how bad it looks just from glancing in the mirror. Sorry in advance for the cell phone quality. Your probably thinking why Im even posting after a haircut but its honestly never looked this bad. I want to start taking propecia, and rogaine but I'm just scared of taking it at my age and the potential side effects I've seen. Also just to note the problem with me is that I'm not consistent which could be a problem for rogaine. But I think I care enough at this point to apply at least twice daily. I figured it be a great idea to start rogaine today in those problem areas since the haircut is very short and can make the hairs coincide with the normal hair growth if that makes any sense. I will just to update this thread monthly with new pics but no promises.

Anyways here goes:

Hard to say. Very abnormal balding pattern. I'd say it looks more like telogen effluvium then male pattern baldness. Are your temples receded?
