Hey guys, I think I have a receding hairline at 15 ,could you tell me how bad is it?
I first noticed it when some friends started joking about it but looking at old photos,I had this hairline for at least a few years now.
Could it be that this is just how my hairline naturally is?(I doubt it) I've had a high hairline sice I was very young ( 7-8 years).

Yes, It looks like the start of male pattern baldness starting at a young age. Your to young for Propecia, I would take a few photo's every 3 months and compare to see if it is getting worse.

Do what Dazzel says and wait till you are 18 or 20 to get on propecia if you notice it's getting worse.

Consider topical spironolacetone. Not sure how effective it is, but it's better than nothing, and safe enough for a 15 year old, if this is in fact male pattern baldness.

You can't imagine how happy I am to hear that :)


This is kind of off topic but could you guys suggest some haircuts that look good with my hairline?

Yes it does look like early male pattern baldness but try not to panic. As your young it likely wont change much to when your 18. Then you can think about taking finasteride. For now i wouldnt even take minoxidil at your age. Better not to mess with hormonal stuff until your fully matured. What might benefit you is using nizoral shampoo for now as its readily available in shops and will go a little way to help for now.

As i sed though dont panic. My hair was a bit like yours at 18. (Thinnish at hairline). It didnt change much until i was 22 and then i hoped onto big3 and still have my hair now nearly 29years if age.

For now do a lil reading on it all so you understand it all and then keep an eye on things.

Good luck

Yeah I'd agree with the posts on here. Don't panic just yet. In 5 or 6 years time your hair could possibly be exactly the same. Take comparison pics every few months.

Use Nizoral and topical minoxidil to prevent more hair loss. Propecia is not suitable for men that young.

Well the pictures are 2 months old and the lighting is pretty forgiving,I thinks its worse in reality.
I will post an update with new pictures to get a new opinion from you guys.

At what age will it be safe for me to use finasteride and min?

There are a few guys here who are 17 who are on finasteride/dutasteride. Not saying thats the safest age, but if you do suffer from male pattern baldness the earliest you catch it the better.
