Shedding Hair Pattern And How Bad Does It Get?

I wondered whether there was a pattern for how hair sheds or whether it could easy be confused with the normal route a receding hairline would go?

I am trying to push to keep going but what was once a receding hairline going back is now changing to a rapid pattern that is boxing in my hairline and its really concerning.

Infact looking at it now my whole hairline is dying, it started about 3 weeks ago and its never been this aggressive

And i can't be sure by my eyebrows may be thinning a little bit also O.O

I can't tell for sure whether i am getting alot of hairfall so i dunno whether its telogen effluvium.

i believe i suffer from male pattern baldness, i am 32 and it started when i was 21 so its never been aggressive but once i started taking finasteride, i was getting itches and it took abit of an aggressive jump

what do you think? :/ my front hairline really is taking a beating.

That is a concern i been worried about but i haven't noticed having oily skin or pimples.

Libido wise... it isn't low as i still get the itch most days but thats about it.

I don't think my tortesterone is low but i also don't think its high since i have had high tortesterone before and i ain't getting alot of the symptoms of high tortesterone.

The scalp itch i am getting is the thing thats telling somethings wrong because i never had an itch before finasteride and i didn't get it when i used saw palmetto or other natural blockers but a few days after finasteride alot of tingling in the thinning areas.

Ok i am seriously on the verge of quiting finasteride. my hairline looks so thin and see through today and i can't say for sure whether this is a shed period or something else is wrong

the pull test doesn't seem to produce much result, i sometimes pull one hair out but i ain't sure thats enough to assume a shed.

I am feeling very insecure about leaving the house today :(

Try something stronger than just finasteride

Only one i have is from september 18th to now (left is 18th and other is yesterday oct 02)

My hairline is taking abit of a beating within just a month while before Finasteride it took at least 2 to 3 months to really spot the effect of the thinning.

I don't really take alot of pictures because thats what happens when you put abit to much faith in a product working and giving you a result you will be happy with rather than reflect on the loss (if you can help it)

I had a receding hairline so its been going back since i was 21 or at least thats when i noticed and while there has been a thought this may just be natural receding i don't know where the scalp itching fits in because thats new and only started with the finasteride.

I really was hoping i was shedding but i continue to do the pull trick and i hardly get any hair :(

I decided to take 1mg every other day now just to see what happens and while i only done it once it all feels like a pointless mess at this point.

i also bought some lipogaine (sensitive) but i dunno how long i can use it since i think it brings me out in an itchy rash... which is a shame because i think the normal minoxidil did also when i tried it a year ago :(

got regenpure shampoo to try also but my luck it will just make it worse also.

My hair is thinning so bad within this last month and from what i can tell it still plans on receding more and i don't remember it ever being this bad... perhaps its my age but i never had this irritating scalp itch until finasteride came along... i am losing hope i am gonna get any regrowth as i think i am fairly fucked and within another month i don't think i am gonna have much of a hairline left from the look of it.

I don't think i am shedding as the pull test gives me nothing.

I just don't get it :(

I am so fucked.
