From the pictures i've shown in this thread, what Norwood would you guys say I am? Ignore the AA spots and look at the MPB pattern and receded hairline and go from there please. Obviously the AA spots make it look worse.

No, i've never heard of that.
Hmm, I googled NW3 in images..those guys look a lot more advanced than me, and they all seem to have a very strong M shape as a hairline.

Twenty-two of 26 patients completed the study. Overall, results showed that 68.2 percent (15 of 22) of patients responded to therapy with 27.3 percent (six of 22 patients) and 40.9 percent (nine of 22 patients) demonstrating a complete hair re-growth and a partial hair re-growth, respectively.

AA has so many treatments... I would definitely try doing something

I've gotten corticosteroids injections, use topical clobetasol. The injections gave me partial regrowth, like half. But not full regrowth.
I'm not good at telling NW's, so maybe you're right, i'm a NW3. But what google images show as an NW3, is not what I see in my pictures. I don't have an M-shaped hairline.
Where can I get Sulfasalazine? My dermatologists have never told me about this treatment. Is it out for AA?

doctor's don't know jack... why do people even go to them? Whatever they learned 20 years ago is outdated and irrelevant right now.
As soon as technology comes up with a thing that "tests your blood" over the internet, doctors won't be needed at all.
anyways, sulfazine is also popular among arthritis people so I'm sure some online pharmacy must sell generics of it or something. Google -> buy sulfazine

About MPB, I learned that myself, doctor's don't know much about that.
About AA, the only treatments they have put on is, steroid injections, clobetasol ointment, and Protopic ointment. Only the injections partially worked.

I don't know about buying it from an online pharm. I put in search, in the pharmacies I do trust, and they don't have it.
