When did you realize you were balding?
Hey, I've asked a couple of questions on this forum and received pretty good answers/anecdotes so I'm back, again. Lol.
First off, when did you realize you were losing hair?
Right now I'm in limbo, with my receded NW2 temples at 18, I'm not sure if I'm going to suffer aggressive MPB. I know many people including family members with temples even more receded than mine, and no further hairloss after that.
But when were you certain you were f***ed, and what did you do about it?
And since I'm already here, is it normal to see thin strips of scalp when you walk out of the shower, if when your hair starts drying you can no longer see any scalp at all?

Well i started balding at 15, and now im 20 and i would say i am a beginner nw3 with a thin spot in the back. Going on propecia at 18 saved me, as i prob would be a nw5 if it werent for propecia. I think with a good hair transplant i would be happy, just waiting too see the industry improve first.

Yeah plus I think with some concealers (I think it's topix?) you can cover up thin spots pretty well.
Since starting Propecia has your hairloss stopped completely?

At 19 I realized that the frizzy hair I had at my temples since I was about 14 disappeared and I had turned into a NW 1.5. I am now 21 and a NW2 and got on fin a month ago after realizing my temple points were starting to go and freaked out about it. That's the worst part about MPB, it always hits you next in a spot you don't expect in to until one day its like BLAM!, your temple points are gone.

Age 20 I realized my temple hair had fallen out and my forehead was noticeably larger.

I was about 12-13 when I noticed my hair was falling out, I didn't fully realize it was mpb until I was maybe 15

About 21 - 22. I didn't do much about it because I didn't know about any of the options, or even if I had any. About 26, I went to see my doctor and instead of helping me or referring me to someone who could, he told me it was natural and to pretty much deal with it. That guy was an idiot dirtbag.

Year ago. July '12. noticed corners of hair line were a little deep and I was shedding way more hair than I could ever remember.
Starting really getting worried Oct '12.
Doctors appointments and forum scrounging until starting treatment Feb' 13.
So much wasted time.
