    Default Thinning on sides of head

    I'm a 19 year old who has recently been under heavy stress. I suffer from moderate/severe social anxiety. Although, I doubt either of these things could cause this. I have NW1.5/2 recession on my right temple, and very minor recession on my left temple. My crown has very minor thinning. My two brothers have both lost their hair and they are in their 30's, my dad went bald when he was 45, and my uncle lost his hair in his 20's. I have accepted I will probably go bald, but will either just accept this as it comes and shave my head, or wait until cloning treatment is up and running.

    I noticed thinning on the sides of my head last year and it has gotten worse since. I'm not sure how noticable it is, but it is kind of worrying.

    Photos of the sides of my head are attached.

    It appears that you may be going bald. MPB doesn't usually result in significant thinning on the sides, but everyone is different. You have the choice to accept that you may go bald or start taking fin/dut/ru as of now.

    Has your hair loss gotten any worse? I have the same exact thing.
