Do I have DUPA (Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia)? I am 19 years old male and experiencing hair loss for 4 years.

helphelphelp13
My hair is Norwood 2 at the moment and my maternal grandpa was like me at 19. But my problem is, I am shedding miniaturized hairs from my donor area. Showed it to my dr and he said your hair is thick on sides and back just a few of them are miniaturized. Does having miniaturized hairs on sides and back confirm %100 dupa or is it should be %50+ to have dupa. Please help me Im crying all day.
