    Default Am I balding 18

    Hi! I am 18 yes old, turning 19 in a few days and lately I've been noticing a thining in certain parts of my scalp. I am really freaking out and I don't know what to do, I've always had good thick hair but when I was around 17 my temples started to receded a bit, nothing too alarming and it wasn't too noticeable till about a couple of months ago my hairline started getting patchy, some hairs started to go back and it started to look uneven, it even started to thin a bit and also in some parts of the scalp. My crown appears to be fine for now but I am really worried. My dad is 45 and has a full head of hair, my mom suffers from a bit of thinning, my paternal grandpa still has hair but he is balding but he didn't start to bald till he was in his 50s-60s and always had good hair before. My maternal uncle has full hair. I have two paternal uncles, one has a full head of hair and the other is completely bald and went bald in his early twenties same goes for my paternal grandpa. So my genetics are 50-50 and I don't really know what to do, it really is getting to me and I am actually getting really depressed because I am really Young and none of my friends are balding , besides I have a terrible head for baldness and my face wouldn't match either , if anyone has a way of slowing it down or stopping it, it would really help!. Thank you so much and sorry for writing such a long text I am just really worried.
