So I started to be concerned about hair loss about 2 years ago. I get like I was noticing thinning. My family told me I was crazy but I was obsessive. Went to a local derm a few times and he told me again and again “minor recession over left temple. Doesn’t look like male pattern baldness”. Wasn’t good enough for me I was convinced I was catching something earlier than everyone else. So I went on finasteride about 6 months ago and some minoxidil (which the derm suggested just for ‘peace of mind’ on the offending region on my left temple). Took these the other night and I’m a bit discouraged. My hairline was a concave line about a year and a half ago (I’m 26 now). It still is in the right side of my head (just and arcing semi circle with no recession at all not even a V or Norwood 1. No angles at all completely unbroken). The left side however seems to keep wanting to push in. In these pics my hairline was where the baby hairs are about a year and a half to two years ago. Now it seems it’s pushed in at least a half inch over my left temple. Made an appointment to go see a different specialist. Staying on finasteride and minoxidil usual routine. But just kinda bummed, discouraged, and losing my mind. Opinions?
