What are the possible reasons behind my hair loss? (Photo)

needsomehelp404
Male, 31, South Asian Was under the impression that I was suffering from male androgenetic alopecia and went for a hair transplant, they literally sent me home saying my donor area is thinning as well so it is not male androgenetic alopecia. They could not tell me what it is though. I'm hoping to get some insight here. Have been using minoxidil and finasteride in different forms and now I am wondering if that was even necessary in the first place
