Would You Call This A Significant Change?

The temples don't seem wider and those "baby hairs" don't seem thinner to you? Maybe it's just me.
I think exactly what @JeanLucBB said in his last post is correct. No cause for concern at this point but I'd assess with photos every 3
Months.
Months.
Thanks for the input. I actually have been doing 3 month updates ever since I first noticed some loss back around 2014/2015. This is the link to my last update if you are curious. https://www.hairlosstalk.com/intera...my-hairloss-gotten-worse.105949/#post-1488478

I think you have a naturally shitty hairline but aren't actively balding.
I have definitely noticed some change in my hairline. For example look at these pictures, notice how the temples and temple peaks were sharper and fuller?
3 years ago:
Oh damn op, i definitely see what you're talking about. Talk about a crisp fkn hairline, I actually think I NEVER had a hairline that squared.
Imo, you've caught your hairloss so early on that no one here can really diagnose you, best bet is visit a dermatologist as I think you may be experiencing slight recession with miniaturization. A lot of people will say "mature hairline" but I don't believe that a mature hairline exists, it's either male pattern baldness or not.

I've been to one before and he said there's no recession when, as you saw, there clearly is. Do you think there's any hope in regrowing all that I have lost?

Not even close. Only with a transplant, and no doctor would agree to leave the hairline as flat and low as in your previous photos.
Ah quite depressing to hear especially as I'm only in my early 20's, but I guess such is life.

Still might be worth getting on finasteride to prevent further losses, and you could still definitely improve it with a transplant. But your hairline in your old photos is ridiculous.
I'm worried about the sides associated with finasteride. How bad would you say it is right now? What Norwood? Oddly enough my older brother still has a really low hairline with zero loss. My father has a Norwood 2 or 3, which isn't bad at all for his age (he's almost 60). Makes me wonder why mine started so early?

Many have a maturing of the hairline to a norwood 1.5 or 2 without miniaturisation of hair behind the hairline or active balding early on such as in early 20s.
I've been on finasteride 6 months no sides.
To be honest your old hairline was so low and flat it looked ridiculous.
Well maybe not go 100% back to my old hairline, but any chance of going back to a NW1 without a transplant?

Holy sh*t, I've never had a hairline like that, sucks to be born with NW1.5 when looking at your pics.
Wtf are you talking about a transplant, are you insane? You are NW1 at max now. Just reassess with pictueres and if it's starting to get worse jump on Finasteride.
