I seriously doubt that anyone will go bald or is balding without balding relatives. I haven't met anyone like day.

I really doubt that everyone in your family has 0 male pattern baldness. Almost every male has pattern baldness to a degree. You sure that nobody even has thinning hair? Considering how common balding is there is atleast one person with major hairloss man. Out of both of ur parents, their siblings, your grandparents and their siblings nobody had major hairloss?

I assure you that you have started the process of balding but that doesnt mean you will go bald fast in a couple of years. You could start losing hairs but then take a very long time to go full bald (even 20 or so years). Its up to you if you want to just wait it out and see but considering you are so sure of your family history I would probably not get on any meds until you know for sure. I am also balding in the same pattern as you but I have a strong family history of agressive balding so im on meds. When my hair is grown out it looks like the exact same as yours and people cant tell im balding yet even though I know I am.

Just dont be one of those guys who say they will never get on meds and deny balding when it first starts but then 8 years later they come back to the forums and are willing to do anything to get their hair back. Modern treatments are much more effective at maintaining your hair rather than growing it back. Also finasteride is cheaper in india I believe just letting you know.

Anyone can bald, even those who have no family history of it. On the other hand, there are cases where people whose family tree is full of NW7's who rock a full head their whole lives. The family history is only an indicator of what to expect, but it's not set in stone

My father had a nw1 his whole life, his father had slight recession, my moms father had slight recession, 3 of my moms 4 brothers had full heads of hair up until now, only one went bald in his later 30s.

I’m 22 and diffusing in a nw6 pattern.

Well guys u all wer right. It is diffuse thinning. It turns out that I don't have that good genetics that I thought. This time when I went my parents home I could clearly see my father diffuse pattern in his small hair. It's just he had this kind of hair from a long time and when he grows out his hair no one can see that he has hairloss. Just thin hair. So how should I proceed. I don't wanna take propecia. Is there any dht suppressing shampoo or something. I think that ours is not aggressive kind of hairloss and I still have v decent hair. Looks like this pic when I grow it out. But I can see my part widening and small gaps between hairs when they are wet under light.
