Hi there,I am 23 years old and I am scared I am losing my hair.I have attached several images, from when I was 17 (not sure if my hair has changed much since then) and even photos of my maternal grandfather and father.My hair is thinning at the front for sure, but unsure whether that is due to stress or genetics.Please see images here: http://imgur.com/a/hjK9hThings to note: I have been in Thailand for the past year, so maybe the tropical climate is to blame for the thinning. Also the barbers here love the thinning shears (but when I look closely at the front of my hair I see complete baldness in between my strands of hair). My maternal grandfather has 2 brothers who are bald, and also my mum's cousin is bald. But apart from that, everyone seems to have hair to some extent.My father has a massive cowlick, as do I, and also we both have the same double crown. I was sure I had his hairline until now, but then when I think about it, it does look like his hair has receded ever so slightly.Do you think my hair is a case of mature hairline, or is it the onset of male pattern baldness? Would you recommend I get on meds? I think I'd maybe rather be bald and healthy than lose libido etc.If you take the time to read this and reply, then thank you very much.Scott

I cant see the pics. But if it is in a pattern typical of male pattern baldness than it's completely and 100% genetic. Sounds like you family history and age is typical of male pattern baldness. Sounds like from your description male pattern baldness as well. I would start finasteride definitely if you have male pattern baldness. If you get sides just stop and they will go away

Hard to help somebody who is unwilling to help himself.
