What norwood am I? Started finasteride and minoxidil

[Squirrell]

Hi all,

I started finasteride and minoxidil 2 weeks ago. Can you please let me know what Norwood i am?
Thanks!

Basically severe diffuse thinning Norwood 6/7 pattern. More back to front as your hairline is relatively better off than the rest. You could get a nice improvement on meds as a lot of your hair is still there. But this is also very aggressive so results may not hold/come. Good luck bro.

thanks for the answer Wolf. I was expecting a nw5/6. Let's hope the meds work!
Should I go for dutasteride now or stay with finasteride?

I can't see the back of your head so you're right, I can't say it's a 7. More likely 5/6 as the crown is going.

I would say give Minoxidil and Finasteride one year and reassess. If you are seeing small positive changes at month 3 onwards, stick with it. I think you will need to use Minoxidil as you need all the help you can get with regrowth.

Squirrell, follow all what Wolf Pack told you. Definitely start Finasteride and Minoxidil ASAP since your hair loss is aggressive. About Dutasteride, it's usually not needed since Finasteride is sufficient in most cases.

Bruh what are you doing, real gangsters like us who go hard with the dutasteride, we need to rep that **** man!

yeah I am using minoxidil (been using it for about 9 months, 2x a day) and fina (which i started 3 weeks ago). I am already seeing a few new hairs at random places. Not that many but it is a start! I am posting a pic of the back of my head.



once again, thanks for the answers!
