19 year old male experiencing a receding hairline and thinning

You have my case. Same hairline. I'm into 25 now and not much have changed.

Rogaine foam is BS. If you want to be sure you are doing maximum to halt hair loss, get a prescription for finasteride. Take 1.25mg of fin per day and apply minoxidil. I recommend Kirkland Minoxidil, because it is cheaper. Once or two times a week wash your hair with Nizoral shampoo and that's it.

Finasteride is the key here. The only thing that can really save your hair in case you are having MPB.

If you don't have the guts to take fin, fearing some minor side effect only one in a million gets, then I don't think you really want your hair enough.

Your advice is terrible. Stick to asking questions.
