Just Turned 19 What Norwood Am I At?

[ieele]

I've recently noticed my temples are not straight anymore. I see baby hairs along the temples and just wanted to check up with you guys to see what norwood I may be at right now. Is there any reason for concern?

Those baby hairs are the first sign of miniaturization. 19 was exactly when I noticed it as well. I am now 41. In my case, the hairline continued to (slowly) recede in a V like shape over the years, but I still had a great amount of hair. It wasn't until about 36 that I began to notice some thinning in the back as well as more thinning in the front. Your story may be different, DHT affects us all uniquely and at different times. Keep an eye on it. If you notice more miniaturization, pick up some Minoxidil and a dermaroller. Try that for a year. If you continue to miniaturize, get a prescription for Finasteride (Propecia). Best of luck!
