It is 99.9% likely to be male pattern baldness, we all wish it wasn't the case.

Keep in mind this happened over the coarse of maybe a month. I’m looking back on pictures from December and I had a full head of hair. That’s why I’m taken by such surprise.

Finasteride produces a rapid reduction in serum DHT concentration, reaching 65% suppression within 24 hours of oral dosing with a 1-mg tablet. Mean circulating levels of testosterone and estradiol were increased by approximately 15% as compared to baseline, but these remained within the physiologic range.
