Apparently this is a mature hairline according to Dr Rassman

Anyone else feel like people's opinions while judging a NW scale on a real person vary a lot, even among doctors?

Yes it definitely seems to vary a lot person to person. The mature hairline who in the world knows if that stops or progresses to MPB? We dont even know basic stuff like how MPB passes down genetically for sure or anything. Maybe we should just be glad we at least got finasteride 20 years ago.

This thread was a pretty good read... not sure what to make of the U/V loss thing. I've heard it's not at all indicative of how much you have lost, or will lose in the future.

Ronald Reagan is a good example -- he lost his temple peaks, but the guy had a full head of hair his entire life.

Its funny how 20 years after finasteride we still know hardly anything about MPB. We cant really predict it with any certainty or even test for it genetically. Its just the well I have xyz relatives with such amount of hair loss so I guess I am going to get the same deal kind of thing. Even tests people mention like miniaturization cant really predict anything with any kind of certainty.
