From reading these forums I have noticed a few things. male pattern baldness seems to be worse the earlier you being to experience it. It seems like there are so many young guys (18-25) that are condemned to go through this madness. I really feel for you all. When I was between 19-24 I had hair like Bon Jovi. I did all kinds of crazy sh*t to my hair: Dyed it, bleached it, crimped it, permed it, highlighted it etc. All the young guys on this forum spend a lot of time on their hair too except for the opposite reason, they're just trying to keep what they've got. I just can't imagine being 18 and starting to experience aggressive male pattern baldness. I would've died. I've always had a healthy fear of male pattern baldness.
The other thing I've noticed is that it seems that male pattern baldness seems also to be worse in guys that experience a lot of itching and have scalp inflammation. My hair is definitely thinner now at 35 than when I was 25. I don't know if it's natural aging or male pattern baldness or what. But I've never experienced itching or even the massive amounts of "shedding" that most guys seem to have. I never realized that itching and scalp inflammation was such an integral part of male pattern baldness until I started reading tis forum. Just some random thoughts.
