What’s My Norwood? Hair Thinning Over Past Month

[Jkm14n]

I’m 19, thinking about starting Finasteride soon. Anyone able to tell me my Norwood? Also, how much should I be worried?

Norwood 1.5

Norwood 1.5

Thanks for the quick reply. Is that good enough for finasteride to do the trick for now?

You got roughly an 83% chance of at least maintaining what you got. I'd say go for it!

How bad is a Norwood 1.5 in the grand scheme of things? I’m gonna get started regardless, but I’m not sure how normal that looks for a 19 year old. I’m already at the “combover” point.

NW1.5 is a really great place to be, its the very early stages of male pattern baldness. I had a similar hairline to yours when I was 19.

In 5 years, when you are used to being where you are (little or no hair loss), you be like "ah this ain't sh&t! I'm all good!"
