    so I just had a buzzcut and... (Pics Inside!)

    You have diffuse thinning, just like me. We have the same type of hair. I started to get weird thinning in the vertex like you, and then it started to progress more and more and more until my hairline took a minor hit as well. Once that happened, I got on finasteride.

    Is Finasteride effective past the expiration date?

    What kind of hair loss is this?

    Just a little background. I used to have THICK hair. My hairline and everything was perfect, and the past 2 years a couple of differnt people made a comment to me that I was losing my hair. Obviously I can't see the back of my head, so I looked at the front and the sides and thought to myself...
