    hard to say. your hair looks great from the pics you posted, but there might be some thinning/maturing of the hairline by the temples. sending your pics to someone who specializes in hair loss would be your best bet as far as an opinion.

    It's very common for young men to be concerned about recession. Recession happens to nearly all men. A little thinning at the peak shouldn't be a concern. Noticeable thinning or miniaturization is something to be concerned about, particularly if there is a history of hair loss in your family. Finasteride and Rogaine help a little.

    Hey!

    Your hair looks great and believe me you've made a huge step in accepting the possibility of hair loss at your age! By addressing the situation now you could potentially keep a full head of hair for a long time despite your inherited genetics from your father. I am 22 years old, I noticed some irregularities at 17 which quite literally ruined me, literally feel tears coming on as i write this because i can remember the pain and mental torture. But that's why I am here, to save you those years of pain.

    Looking at your hair now and what you have said about your father, I would 100% start taking Propecia. Boots online pharmacy will send it discreetly to your home address. £90 for 3 months supply so £1 per day to keep your hair and potentially experience some (or a lot) regrowth and thickening. Propecia is one of the only proven supplements to work! And trust me, it works! My hairline was far more severe than yours and now its great! I've been taking propecia for 18 months and the changes are incredible! I'm so happy! My hairline is nearly straight! So please start taking propecia, have that piece of mind that it's not going anywhere soon and you could even grow some back!

    If you want some expert, professional advice, book a free consultation with ziering! They will assess you and do everything they can to ensure you keep your hair! They aren't after your money, i've been sent away by them so many times because they want to look out for my future not my impulsive past.

    From one young man to another, no matter how much this gets you down don't lose hope! There is always a solution!

    Message me if you wanna talk! I have so many solutions, all of which I have tried and work!

    Here's an oldie but goodie from WebMD:
    "May 27, 2005 -- Mothers may unwittingly put their sons on the path to baldness. Chalk it up to genetics, says European researchers. They include Markus Nöthen, a genomics professor at Germany's University of Bonn. Nöthen and colleagues say they've found a gene variation that may explain some cases of male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia), the most common form of hair loss, which is related to the male sex hormones. The suspect gene variation sits on the X chromosome, which is handed down to men by their mother."

    Of course, MPB can be inherited from one bald guy generations back before cameras existed. To document the relative's degree of hair loss.
