Is My Crown Going Bald? 18 Years Old

[Muffinman]

I’m 18 and going insane thinking I’m balding I need help. I recently discovered my crown and it looks like it’s balding.

I have very stupid thick hair but and this is bugging me seeing that one spot of skin showing

Ya seems like it but very slowly you could probably safely ignore it for a few more years. We should have some new treatments out by 2020 and if not then early twenties is a good time to start finestaride. For a low-maintenance solution you could start using Nizoral shampoo now.

Add minioxidil to be on the safe side.

if it gets any worse then finasteride is a form of medication you can consider.

Isn't thinning IMO, just keep an eye on it.

Its hard to tell if its thinning, although it looks like it could possibly be. Keep a close eye on it, and if it gets worse then you could consider starting finasteride.

Exactly, I don't get it either. My crown looks exactly like OPs and I get told that it isn't thinning and that I have BDD here.

It took you 18 years to realise you have a cowlick.. well done (nothing wrong with your crown).

No crown thinning. And you dont have crown thinning either @Jack Ito. You have great hair, maybe slow recession but thats it.
