    At age 18 that is extremely aggressive MPB, at this point i'm not sure how helpful meds will be, you can certainly try, I woudln't expect much however, it may slow it down, but inevitably you will go bald, you can try a hair system, if you don't want to shave your head, there are alternatives out there believe me.

    Forget it. Shave it all and accept you will be bald all your life. You will save yourself a lot of useless frustrations. Sorry but your MPB is way to aggressive you are only 18. It won't stop you from having a happy life.

    Unfortunately people who go bald when they're young usually have very aggressive androgen alopecia. Good luck.

    It will take months before Minoxidil works for you. Expect the initial shedding phase. That could last between twelve and sixteen
    weeks.

    Try propecia on the chance that new treatments come soon otherwise you do look like a shaved head will suit you well, so that's good.

    Are you just gonna use electric hair clippers with no guard or go all out with a blue BIC razor?

    My vote is BIC.
