I am 24 and I'm a Norwood 6. I was wondering will my hair loss get worse and become a Norwood 7 or not?
Answer: Norwood pattern Hair loss pattern in multifactorial. Genetics, age and generalized health all play a role. Predicting a pattern is difficult but becomes easier (and more accurate) with age. A thorough clinical and family history can help one develop an educated guess as to where they will plateau. Older patients who look similar to their male family members are more likely to stabilize than are younger patients with significant familial disparity. That being said, this is only a guess and early intervention can turn the tide.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS) with experience in hair restoration.

Answer: Will my hair loss progress? Your hair loss will progress to some degree and the speed of progression will depend on the your underlying genetics and how much you respond to treatment. But in all likelihood there will be some worsening over time. See a physician to discuss that plan over the next 75 years.
