"It's okay, the average person loses 50-100 hairs a day"

Is it realistic to find any solace in that statement?

My hair has thinned quite a lot at the temples, and slightly above the forelocks. I still have plenty of hair and I just comb my hair forward to cover it up. I don't think people realize how significant my hair loss is, they just think I have a bad haircut. Anyways, that's irrelevant.

My point is this. I've been taking propecia for 7 months and my hair loss has significantly subsided. However, over the course of the day I will still notice the loss of around 15-30 hairs. That seems like a fairly small amount, but whereas most people who lose hair probably don't notice because it grows back, given the fact I have male pattern baldness, is 15-30 hairs still a lot? How many of those hairs will actually grow back and how many are gone for good? Will I continue to observe the recession of my hairline given my current hair loss rate and given my genetics?

Ignore that statement and if you think you're thinning then look for evidence of miniaturization or loss of density.
