    I've noticed steady receding, V-shape, in front for few years which I'm trying to hide.

    Now, the top looks thinning. WTF.

    How bad is it on the scale? How much longer before the inevitable.

    Recommendations? Shave it and be done?

    curt a.

    wondering what happens if I do no drugs?

    How long before i go from the awkward thinning stage to people saying i'm bald?

    and what kind of haircut would be better?

    I am wondering how it looks without product? That makes the hair stick together and shows more scalp. No "Dutasteride" is not THE answer, it might be an answer.

    Is it possible the density is 1/2 on top as the sides?

    Also, i think i have that little island of hair in the front? Is that next to go?

    I am going to say, a classic Norwood 3, vertex. As for going forward, I suspect the baldspot on the crown will grow larger, as the "V" will get deeper.

    How long? Really depends. As for the Island, it depends, it may go quickly, or it may hang on.

    I would take the next step, and just shave it.
