Hi folks. 41 year old male here. As far as I know there is no male pattern baldness in my family - father has hair, his dad is in his 80's but still has some hair. I'm not sure about my maternal grandfather - never knew him as he was estranged from our family. A couple weeks ago, after getting a fairly short haircut, when it started to grow back, I noticed what looks like thinning on the sides - above ear and my part seemed to be wider, and there seems to be almost like a part showing on the other side (where I don't have a part). I don't think my hairline is receding, and I can't tell if I am thinning on the top, but it looks like it. When I style (comb) my hair it covers the bald spots, but when I wake up in the morning and the hair is mussed, it's like long thin bald streaks on the side/top side of my head. Is this the start of male pattern balding? Having major anxiety about this. Is this just thinning hair that comes with age? When I part my hair it seems like there's a lot of scalp as well.
Sorry for my naivete. I've always had somewhat fine hair, but over the last few weeks, a couple weeks after a really short haircut, it's like it grew in weird or all of a sudden I'm losing my hair. Any advice/feedback/analysis much appreciated. Thank you!
