you have a perfect hairline for 31 yo
In my opinion you shouldn't pay attention to the guys telling you your other temple will follow, unless of course they have a crystal ball.
I've had one side way worse than the other for as long as I can remember, started to notice it at around 17 I think, and now many years later it's still pretty much the same. There's a possibility your hairline may have always been like this but you're just now starting to notice it. Obviously it depends on you, there's a chance your other temple may follow, but if there's no hair loss in your family it is unlikely.
P.s. The majority of the people on this forum would absolutely love to have/have had your head of hair at 31 years old. And also this is off topic but frequent exercise does wonders for depression/anxiety.
If you hair doesn't go back by the time your 65 it's almost weird! A 65 year old man will pretty much always be at least NW2. And let's say you get a hair transplant at an older age, the doctor usually won't make you an NW1 bc it looks funny on a senior citizen
Hey, guys ( :
So recently, I went to get my haircut and noticed my left temple receding. This was particularly shocking for a few reasons. For one thing, I didn't notice this when I got my hair cut like 1 1/2 or 2 months ago. Also, the right side is still very thick and I haven't lost a hair. I'm about to turn 31, by the way.
Here is some other information about my background. My family all has very thick hair and my father died pretty young at 65 but he had really, really thick hair with no noticeable loss. Another thing about me is that I have crippling depression and anxiety and I've been particularly stressed out over the past year to year and a half or so(Yeah, I know that's a long time, haha). Typically, I take great care of myself but since becoming more depressed lately, I haven't kept up proper exercise or nutrition so I'm getting back on track. My appetite is nonexistent as well(I'm eating enough/healthy now though). Thyroid and testosterone are normal.
Anyway, sorry for the long post. Should I just say goodbye to my hairline or could it be stress? Should I start on the treatments in the forums immediately? In the meantime, I'm going back to my psychiatrist for the depression and possibly a dermatologist.
Here are some pics for reference
