Who what the specialist?

Personally I like to get a second opinion on something that really worries me, some doctors or specialist are better then others... did you feel like he knew what he was talking about? and as amadeus he also too sees only slight hair receding if any just like me... dont get all worried and start losing your hair because of stress and anxiety about it

but if you feel the person that looked at your hair today just didnt give you the warm feeling or if you like to see if another doctor or specilist says you are fine to make you feel better then go for it.

Like anything though there are a few specialists out there that like money more then helping, hopefully u will not find any of those... i remember my first guy i ever saw he was all about lets do surgery soon, schedule next week and that was when i had way more hair then now... even now good doctors in my area think i dont need a transplant they just help me with retaining what i got...

anyway i am talking to much.... if seeing another specialist to help put your mind at ease then go for it

thank you morbby.

He is a dermatologist. He talked to me for like 5 minutes and that was it. I will try to see another doctor when I have time.

update :

I went to see another dermatologist who was recommended by a friend because of his good reputation plus he is bald himself.

Anyway he first checked my scalp and hair all over and talked to me about 20 mins which made me relieved. I mean talking to the doctor about your concerns is what I want.

The doctor said he sees no sign of balding at all and said the temples has receded but what i have has nothing to do with balding and size of the forehead is just hereditary.

He noticed dandruff and asked me if I have itchy scalp or something. He prescribed me an Anti-fungal & Anti-dandruff twice a week and scalp drops called Betnovate scalp application twice a week as well.

I asked him if using Propecia or rogaine would help he replied they wont help with the temples at all.

I thought I would share my visit to the doctor.

well I hope that put your mind at ease.. and yeah propecia and rogaine are not known to work that great on the temples though some people on the forums have said they have had success, just like every treatment on here some people have positive results and some do not with the same treatment.

I thought you looked pretty good,I would say stay healthy, eat well, take vitamins if you feel you dont get them in your day to day foods and keep an eye on it, just dont stress about it, that could be the worse thing to do Amazing what the mind can do., hair loss due to stress would suck

Happy New Year

Hi guys,

Update:

Still the same after 6 months nothing has changed in my hairline although sometimes I worry about the thinner hair in the hairline but I heard it's normal as non-balding men like Tom Cruise for example has finer thinner hair at the hairline compared with other areas in his scalp. So I don't understand the concept of miniaturization of hair lead to balding !

I will try to upload new pics tomorrow just to compare and help guys who are in my situation.

One more thing does swirl at the hairline tells you something ? I mean I have a swirl at the right side of my hairline near the corner and does my brother who is not balding. I am not sure just a thought /
