28 years old with thinning hair and a receding hairline. Any suggestions? (photos)

Asked By:kkhan00 in Australia, AU

I am 28 years old with a receding hairline and the hair on the top is pretty much dormant and thinning to a point that my scalp is visible. The crown area also seems to be getting thinner and is very visible under bright light. Which norwood scale I am on at the moment and will it be helpful if I start taking propecia? Also am I a good candidate for a transplant at this point? Any further advice would be helpful. Thanks
