I'm 17 and I've been noticing my hairline receding for a few months now, and I've noticed my crown area starting to thin. I told me mum but at first she didn't really think anything of it, but over the last few weeks, I've been constantly worrying about it and she could see that. So she just asked me if I wanted to go back to the GP about it(I've been to see my GP ago it before but honestly he didn't really pay any attention to it and half arsed it), GPs are probably not the best people to visit about hair, but I live in a small island where there isn't any hair specialists, so they are the best I've got. So yeah , what are the chances that my doctor will prescribe me finasteride if I'm 17 and a half, should I bring up finasteride if my doctor doesn't even mention it? I was planning to quarter the pills so I would take .25mg per day.
