    Default Worried sick about balding! 19 nearly 20

    Im 19 and worried about going bald since i was 17! My hair has receded a bit at the temples! One started going when i was 16, the other only noticeably more recently. My dad was bald from early 20's but was thin when he was about 18.. My mums father has a great head of hair, his corners may have gone back a little. Ive been to the doctors and she said i wasn't going bald! Nobody thinks iam just me.. My dad's hair thinned on the top at the back, mine is pretty thick there..

    Seems like when i don't worry my hair is thicker! But i may have caused more damage worrying 24/7..

    What do you lot suggest? Propecia? And how would i get hold of it?

    I wouldnt worry about it because you have NW0 perfectly full hair.

    sounds like what you're describing is a mature hairline.

    stop worrying about it, if anything actually noticeable happens(which probably wont) then come back and look over options.

    An early sign would be a huge amount of shedding.(but note that everyone sheds at least a little bit. not just hairloss people)

    If your THAT worried about it and have the money, take a genetic test for hair loss and it will give you a better picture.

    What you are experiencing at this time is the development of the natural and normal adult mature male hair line. This in and of itself is not male patterned baldness. It is nothing more than one of the normal male traits that differ from females such as bigger hands, bigger feet, deeper voice etc.

    The hair line itself is not a good indicator of MPB. The vertex, mid-anterior areas and the front center part of your hair line are the indicators of MPB. Keep an eye on those areas. If you see thinning in those areas and want to do something about it, consult with a dermatologist who specializes in treating hereditary hair loss.
