Just need a couple suggestions

21 years old now, I've got a bit off an odd hairstyle which is short at the back and really long at the front which covers most of my face. Anyway, when I was 19, I took a couple of aerial photos at random under bright lighting and in the photos I literally looked like I was like 30% bald towards the front. I couldn't believe it, so I guess my hair is getting thinner. 2 years later it isn't really any different. Hairline is still a 10/10 and isn't receding, if it's greasy or under bright lighting, then you can sorta tell it's thinner than it should be, but other than that, it isn't noticeable .The top and crown are fine also, it's just the very frontal sort of area. I've asked family, my girlfriend etc and nobody thinks I should buzz it, but a friend of mine recently shaved his head because he had diffuse thinning (I think is the name) and he says he feels much better for doing so. I haven't had a short hairstyle since I was 12, and have never ever had a buzzcut, even as a child haha. What do you guys think? Went to the doctor a few months back and he advised against stuff like propecia..

If I were you, I would go to a hair transplant doctor and get checked for Male Pattern Baldness. If you do have it, then get a prescription for Finasteride so your hair doesn't keep getting worse in the long term.

There are many men that take Finasteride without any problems whatsoever. Do not let yourself get scared away from at least trying the medication, side effects occur in a very small amount of men. If side effects do occur, you can quit taking the medication and they'll subside.

I take Dutasteride and haven't had and problems.
