coming to terms with hair loss and seeking advice
hello everyone. i'm 24 years old and my hair has been thinning for several years but just now getting to the point where it is getting regular comments. since i was 18, i had been diffusely thin across my scalp with thinner spots in the middle of my hairline and at the vertex. over the last year, it has worsened and my hair is not growing as quickly as it used to.
while i don't have any slick bald spots (though the center of my hairline is approaching that), my scalp is highly visible under light. under low light it is not as evident but it is still noticable with examination. my hair line, other than the center, is mostly where it was 4 years ago with maybe some temple recession - my temples were always around where they are.
as implied by the headline, i am new to treatments. i do not have any regimen other than the nutriox thinning shampoo i started using a couple weeks ago. if you want to see pictures, i have uploaded several - two of my scalp under near direct sunlight, then 4 of different angles in low light.
i would like to know if, considering my pattern of balding, there is any hope through the use of medication such as fin or minox. i am not too enthusiastic about untested experiments...
thanks for your advice! if i begin treatment, i will follow through with pictures on a regular basis regardless of the results.
