How Bad Am I Balding And What Can I Expect In The Future? Is There Anything I Can Do?

[zpapa1231]

Title says it all. I know my hairline has receded but I'm not sure if you guys can tell specifically when and how aggressively I can expect to bald and what, if anything, I can do to prevent more balding, slow down the progression, or even potentially grow back some hair and maintain.

I am 21. Feel free to ask any other questions

Temples are receding but your hair is still good. Hop on finasteride. If you get sides just stop.

Thanks for the quick reply! I appreciate it greatly. I'm very ignorant when it comes to hair loss... Is there any way to make a decent guess as to how much I can expect to recede? Will it just be a little more than stop forever, will I go all the way to a Norwood 7, etc. Thanks for any help in advance

Norwood 2.5 at 21. Cant say for but I think that won’t stabilize and you will continue to recede

Thanks for the honest reply. Even with finasteride it wouldn't likely stabilize? And are hair transplants something that should appeal to me? How effective are they in general?

You’d likely stabilize with propecia!

Thanks a lot. Do I need a prescription for it? If so, can I just see a PCP or do I need to see a dermatologist or..? Thanks again for the help
