Sorry, but the fact that you're on a forum for bald/balding men and thinking you can relate says something about your mental health.
You have a form of body dysmorphia if you're stressing about hair loss with that level of density. Stop worrying about your non-existant hair loss and go enjoy your youth.
If you don't feel confident with that amount of hair, you're never going to be satisfied, seriously.
@Exodus2011 do you have any thoughts

You dont have a receding hair line. Androgenetic alopecia is different for individuals. Few loose their hair in a pattern, others loose their hair diffuse, like you and me. Diffuse thinning is often hard to spot because almost the whole top is affected and it gives the illusion of a full head of hair. I know what I am talking about. I got 5 docs proving it. You notice it when 50% of density is lost, what actually happened to me. Take action as early as you can. Good that you noticed it in the shower! After reading posts of shedding in shower, I observed it as well on myself, and wow I'm shoked, so many strands on my hands during shower, I ignored before then.

Damn you're right, I must be going blind or something.
Sorry OP but your hair loss is so severe that you go beyond the Norwood scale. Not even a rug can save you I'm afraid.
Your best course of action is to become a mouse, everything grows hair on mice.
Point noted. I guess I am a norwood 0. I'm losing hair mostly diffuse, strange I'm not norwooding as well.
It's over for my diffused norwood 0 hair.

Asking ‘what my Norwood is’ was always gonna get you some sarcy answers on here so I dunno why you did that lol. BUT don’t listen to anyone on here man.. you know your own hair better than anybody, and if you think you’re losing it then you’re probably losing it. My density used to be insane even at 18/19 and people literally laughed when I mentioned hair loss. People want you to sink in their boat most of the time.

wrong. i just told like 3 people to start saving money for a hair transplant because thats the closest thing to a cure
dudes obviously either a troll or yet another BDD incel. there's a ton here. in fact most posters here seem to be BDD lol
Not a troll. My hair might look fine in the photo but in reality it's a diffusing mess. It's only a matter of time before my life is over. I've already lost 50% of my density by this point

When you lose 50% density and more you can clearly see scalp from any angle. I will give you an example what an aggressive diffuse thinner looks like:
Note that I am 17 years old.
Please consider taking a video of your hair, so we can evaluate your situation better.

Here are some photos. You can clearly see how fucked it is. Good thing my hairline is fine, though.

Wasn’t talking about you personally otherwise I would replied to you lol. I don’t think you or anybody else possess the power of being able to tell if somebody’s losing hair through ONE picture of his hairline. He knows his hair better than you or I. I don’t see the sense in telling someone not to worry at all.. that’s all I’m saying

idk i cant really tell.looks like it could just be parted hair + fine hair. just take weekly pics in same angle and lighting to monitor it.
and start saving as much money as possible in case you need a hair transplant in the future
