First off, I'd like to say hi to all of you here.
Ok, my story;
First off, I know of nobody in my entire family, both on moms and dads side that suffer from any sort of hairloss...
iI'm a 27 year old male. I first started noticing my hairline receeding back in 2000, it was receeding in the temples a little before then, but this is when I really started to notice it. It swasn't a big deal then, and as the years went by, I thought the mature hairline kinda looked decent. Of course, back then, I was not well informed of treatments, ect, boy the internet is a wonderful place.
While it only started as temple receeding, 06 has been a bad year, not only have I experienced redeeding, but now, I'm experiencing thinning on the top of my head, vertex, crown, along with front, with major temple receeding. My hairloss seemed to REALLY pick up as of may of this year, and that's when I really started noticing the thinning on top.
I've only recently, as of 1.5 months ago, started using Rogaine foam and nizoral shampoo, which thus far, has seemed to really make me shed, and have caused further noticible thinning of my hair (all forum posts suggest that if I'm shedding now because of the rogaine, that it means that it may work that much better down the road)
Ok, on to the good stuff, or should I say bad? The pics.
One thing to notice is that my right temple is worse than my left. I thought about shaving, but I think I will have a very awkard hairline because of this
Right temple

Another pic of the left side:
Front:
Ok, ok, I know that some of you out there are like, well, his hairloss doesn't look too bad...but heres another to show otherwise...
Front with hair brushed down: Shows just how bad it's thinning in the front
Right side, there is a line going from the front to the back from the temple that is clearly thinning. The whole top is thinning, but this is rather noticible
Now, I'm here, looking for answers, and possibly hope, before this gets really ugly.
