Hey
I've looked extensively at the Norwood image scale, and am trying to figure out which one I am. Few questions:
- is there any absolute way to tell the difference between Norwood 2 and 3. what is the typical amount of temporal recession for Norwood 2 versus 3. If its 2, how will I know if it becomes a 3.
- I am only 20, but have went through a ton of stress between Aug. through now (I go to MIT and thats half the reason for my stress, my courses are difficult and I'm in charge of a few clubs). However, I've finished up my hard courses and am taking an easier courseload next semester. Will I have hair regrowth if stress levels go down during my next hair cycle, if stress is the main cause?
- I worked out sporadically this semester; I'd go to the gym and lift heavy weights for short bursts of 20-30 minutes and then just leave and start eating food. I'm guessing this increases DHT? Would adding in a mile run or so combat this?
Am I just a Norwood 1.5-2 who is paranoid about having his hairline mature? This is new to me, since I used to complain I was too hairy and looked forward to haircuts. I am South Asian, if that makes a difference. Dad has a lot of hair, but some baldness on both sides of my family.
I'd like to hear your replies; the people on this forum seem very knowledgeable. Here is a set of two pics; they aren't meant to show the hairline since they are just from my friends Yahoo photo album. However, my hairline forms sort of a roundish triangle that is typical of the Norwood pattern.
