    Default Balding primarily on my left side?

    Hello,

    I am 24 years old and have always had thin hair. I decided to take a picture of the side of my head today and it made me sick to my stomach. No one has ever mentioned that I have thinning, and actually get compliments on my hair quite frequently. There's really no family history of baldness. Please check pictures. It's now all I can think about.

    Thank you

    Also, when I pull relatively hard on the thinner hairs nothing comes out.

    you're thinning from the side of the head, but not on top? If so, that's not typical MPB. You may have some kind of alopecia other than MPB and should see a dermatologist. It's hard to tell from the pics what is exactly going on, but it looks like you have a pretty thick head of hair on the top?

    Yes the hair on top is pretty thick indeed. I always have trained my hair to go to the right and had a hard part buzzed in a couple hair cuts ago. Because of the long length of the hair on top I find those hairs in the bathroom, but never really find any small ones

    If it is mpb, it will become symmetrical in time. Mine started on right side and took about 1 year to about 1.5 years to start on the left side.
