What Is Up With This Bald Spot? Is It Normal?

[Sweeny1982]

Ever since I was 20 I've had one small spot on my head that had drastically less hair than the rest of my head. As I started thinning more on top I started propecia. I've been on propecia for 10 years now and seem to really be losing hair at a much faster rate (crossing my fingers propecia is still working). Especially on the one side of my head. I find it so odd, but maybe it's normal? I've attached a picture to see if this is a normal balding pattern or if something is up with that one spot on my head? It's getting hard to hide and looks odd. Thanks.

Definitely not a normal pattern but looks like genetic hair loss to me... hair still looks fine though especially for your age

That is diffuse mail pattern baldness and yes your suffering from it...Nuff said

I know I'm balding, but I guess since the spot on the right side has always had less hair in the one bald spot I'm worried I will end up with just a big bald spot on the side of my head. I've never seen a guy with one bald spot and it's hard to cover up. Since the norwood scale doesn't apply to diffuse thinning is it pretty bad since I can clearly see scalp?

Its just gonna start balding badly from there and eventually go throughout your head... Norwood scale isn't limited to the horseshoe pattern.
