Does DUPA type hair loss typically manifest itself on the back and sides first instead of the typical pattern?

jayk1991
I have some thinning in the normal male baldness pattern and have been very slowly receding at my temples for a few years. But I have recently noticed the hair on my left side above my ear seems to be thinning. so there is the normal thinning horseshoe pattern with thinning extending lower down my left side. Back and right side seem normal. obviously not looking for a personal diagnoses. just curious about DUPA's typical behavior Male, 28yrs old, on finasteride for 2 months.
