Losing hair at 19. Worried about my temples.

[Tom292]

Hello everyone,
I'm 19 years old and started losing my hair. My dad is norwood 7 bald and he was a diffuse thinner. In my case I started losing my hairline. I'm currently on finasteride 1mg and my plan is to use it for a 6-8 months to see how it works without adding minoxidil. My questions are: Do you think its a good idea to wait with minoxidil or should i hop on it immediatly?
And what chance do i have to keep my hair on these treatments? How well do they work on someone who started balding this early?
Ps: Also sorry for my bad english.

Baldness comes from mother’s side.

I wouldn’t use finasteride this early. Perhaps at a very low dosage but nah.

Topical minoxidil might be a better and safer choice.

finasteride and min work regardless of when hairloss start. They’re the two proven treatments for hairloss. The issue is having to take them for lofe

Not true, it comes from both sides

No baldness comes from whatever is dominant, you are talking out of your ***.
