    Default 27 and starting to recede

    Hey i posted in the open forum. I am a 27 year old male and my hairline is starting to recede. Here is a bit about me.

    Hey guys im 27 years old. I started to notice my hairline gradually receding from my early 20s. I have long hair so it covers up alot of the early receding. I have a few question for the experts on here if you don't mind me asking.

    1. I was wondering what i am on the norwood scale?
    2. Should i start propecia?
    3. If worst comes to worst how many graft hair transplant do i need?
    4. I heard some people say it is not good to get a hair transplant when you just start to lose hair.. why is that? I am a noob so excuse my dumb questions.
    5. Does propecia help with the frontal or does it only thicken up the vertex?
    6. I used to cut my hair short all the time now im afraid if i cut it bald people see how badly i am receding. Any advice is appreciated fellas.
    7. If i just let my hair stay relaxed when it is long or even pony tail it when it is long it is not that noticeable. The only time it is noticeable is when i pull it back and take a picture like i did below.

    Here are some of my photos... if you guys need clearer shots let me know or if any experts want to see me via skype let me know as well through pm i wil shoot you my skype. (no homo)

    here is the direct link guys. if you feel the pics are not clear enough or want me to take them from different angles just let me know via pm or the forum. Thanks!
    pics: 1, 2, 6, 7, 9 13 at when the hairline is at its worst.... imo the rest of the pics don't look too bad..

    Answers:
    1. Your a Norwood 2 which is the first stage of hair loss
    2. No! Decrease ejaculations it will shrink your prostate just like this medication does. Try going once every two weeks or less.
    3. You don't need a hair transplant and long before you need one Histogen or another company will have protein injections that will grow your hair back.
    4. Its not good because you will continue to lose hair but not the ones they put into the front so if you could imagine it will look very ridiculous. However decreasing your ejaculations will keep you from losing anymore hair and grow some back.
    5. Mostly only thickens the vertex, Propecia number one side affect in men who see results in loss in libido and others more severe like erectile dysfunction inability to ejaculate. Some don't experience any of these side affects but also ironically don't see any results either.
    6. Yea cutting it short will show your hair line if you can pull off longer hair then do it really its whatever makes you feel more comfortable.
    7. Yea it always looks worse pulled back with the hairline perfectly exposed

    do you believe in the "adult hairline" vs "juvenile hairline." do you believe some people recede a little bit and that is it. i have seen plenty of males with thick juvenile hairlines.

    (side note: i pulled my hair really really hard but when i pull it softly it is not as recessed or appear as recessed)
