    Question Fighting a receding hairline, where do I stand and what steps do I take next?

    I have a receding hairline; when I was about 16-17 I went through a period of extreme stress that simply caved in the hairline on the two sides.

    Now I am 31, I cant really tell how much it is receding but I want to be careful hence I have visited a dermatologist. I am on Minoxidil 10% since April, a shampoo and hairgrowth capsules (Biotin and other supplements). The last doctor I visited was in 2017 and I did not follow her regimen strictly - now I am very serious.

    Attached is the album with progress from Feb this year, note how the two sides cave in and the right side even more aggressively.

    Both the temples seem bald, but on closer inspection I can see hundreds of small miniaturized hair - can PRP help reinvigorate this area ?

    Also, what about FUE, is it worth it ?
