    Patientlywaiting:

    The first is what it normal looks like (without pulling it back) which pretty much shows zero balding to the average person. The second shot shows the widows peak, which I have always had but it very clear that I am experiencing MPB. The third shot is just a closeup of my hair normally. So I am probably a Norwood 2

    It's up to you, but I would be interested in seeing what level you are....

    Just took this pic. This is my "bad" temple from the side.



    2 years ago it was worse.

    Dude to me, it barely looks like you're balding. Are you taking propecia, if so for how long and has it maintained or regrown?

    Okay, my internet connection was acting slow. Wait, you haven't seen anything yet. Let me keep showing you, you haven't seen the worst part which is my hair line.

    This is my left temple.



    This is the bad part of my hair loss, the hair line.

    I have been taking Finasteride 1.25 MG since November 2010. I was on and off it before that. My hairline started rapidly receding when I was 18 going to 19. I'm 23 now. We're both 23 and you're in a lot better shape than I am, way better. You're hair is thicker and longer so you can cover your receding hairline, I don't have that luxury. I also use Rogaine and Kirkland's minoxidil. But the main thing I use is Finasteride. I haven't been on Minoxidil long enough and consistent enough to get any real regrowth from it, but i'm trying.

    Fin definitely has maintained, and it probably has regrown a little bit. But I would just say that it has maintained. Probably regrew some little hairs on my temple that haven't turned in to terminal hairs.

    Honestly, I can barely tell. The problem is that we always feel our hair loss is more noticeable that it really is. To me, mine looks worse than yours.

    If you really think that, then you should get on Finasteride 1MG a day. If you see pics of me from 2009, you will see I was nearly bald. Honestly i'm not even gonna post them because they are so hideous. I don't want my ugly 2009 head floating around the internet.

    Also, you can't see it from the pics I showed, but I also have Alopecia Areata on the top of my head. Which makes my hair loss even worse.

    I've been taking finasteride for 3 months now because my father has been taking it for over 10 years and it has worked for him. So obviously it has regrown for you right? I'm not so much looking for regrowth just maintenance
