Hey guys. I've posted a few times here over the past few months. Most met me with a kind demeanor and told me not really to worry and that I shouldn't prescribed anything unless I REALLY was being cautious. I've gotten past the panicking part of this whole ordeal, which is good.
Anyways, what I'm posting this update for is I'm wondering if I should hop on the Rogaine wagon with what I'm seeing here. My hairline has always been sort of soft and thin, but in this area where I had a scar about 6-7 years ago has become more thin than I'd like. You can tell which area I'm talking about. I'm not really worried about becoming instantly bald, but where it looks very thin is bothering me. It's weird because the left side of my head hasn't thinned or receded at all in the past 10-15 years. It's all on the right hand side. And it's not even receding, it's just thinning ever so slightly enough for me to notice and no one else.
History: I'm turning 30 this year and my mother's father went bald, but not until 60. Her brother also is thinning a lot, but he is doing it in the typical MPB pattern with the widow's peak and everything. I've seen doctors about thyroid and even tried to get prescribed Propecia last time I was there from both a dermatologist and a general practitioner to no avail. People in my life think I'm crazy if I even mention I think I'm going bald. Sometimes I think they might be right, but in pics like these I get nervous.
These pics are literally right under direct light which I hope was obvious at the fact that my eyebrows are non existent in these pictures, haha. Also please excuse the awful, awful beard.
