    Is My Crown Balding At The Age Of 20?

    It depends on the doctor, I would imagine. You can always call their office and ask if hair loss is something they work with. I can't speak for Europe, because I have no idea, but in the U.S I spent about $100 for a visit to the doctor and to get a prescription for finasteride. I never went...

    Is My Crown Balding At The Age Of 20?

    In order for myself and any other random person on this forum to make an educated guess as to whether or not the sliver of scalp that is visible is evidence of male pattern baldness, we would need to see a baseline picture from when you definitely weren't losing your hair to compare these pictures to.

    Is It Worth Trying For Some Regrowth?

    I have very similar hair loss pattern to yours. My plan is to do exactly what you suggested... try for as much regrowth to see what happens, and then I plan on getting a hair transplant once I have the funds saved up (probably around a year from now). I've found that on the subject of hair...

    The Beginning Of My Journey, Experimenting Before Surgery

    .... joking about what? to be fair, I think what I really need is a hair transplant. In the meantime though, I'm settling for two out of the big four. I'd rather not mess with finasteride if I can avoid it.

    The Beginning Of My Journey, Experimenting Before Surgery

    Hi all. I have been lurking here for a while, and decided to finally create a post that I will use to document my journey towards hopefully getting my hair back. Here are some "before" pictures that shows my current hair loss. I'm not sure what Norwood I would be classified... maybe 6...
