Thanks for sharing that. I have indeed used Minoxidil (Rogaine, 5%) to control overall shedding of hair. It definitely stopped shedding when I was afraid of losing my hair, but the bald temple areas absolutely resisted the treatment. My hair is very thick except for these two annoying spots. But...
Almost all treatements I've come across are intended for vertex alopecia. Some specifically say that they have no impact on other types of men's hair loss. Is there a known treatment (pharmaceutical or herbal) for bitemporal recession? That is moderate to serious hair loss in the temple areas...
