I am 22 and I am worried I am balding as my hairline doesn’t go straight across like others I see. My hairline hasn’t changed much in one year as I have photographed it often but I was wondering if based on my hairline am I losing my hairline and if I am will I keep losing it? Should I start taking finasteride or are the health side effects too great if I am sexually active? The first 3 photos are from one year ago, the rest are from last week.

Answer: Balding? Your biggest enemy is the progressive thinning leading to a balding pattern that may not evident at this point in time. The degree of hair loss that you are experiencing would suggest that you should see a doctor who most likely will get Bulk Measurements of your hair to determine the degree of the thinning that you may be presently having. If the diagnosis is early genetic hair loss (the most common cause of hair loss in young men and you are following your families balding problem), then the best treatment would be the drug finasteride which is highly effective in men of your age and may not only stop the hair loss but possibly reverse it. If you are developing a more advanced balding pattern the best test to get is the HAIRCHECK instrument test (for bulk measurements) and this will show, over a one-year time frame, how effective the treatment will be or if you are not on drugs, using this instrument to tell you if you have ANY hair loss at all. Once you know this information, then you and your doctor need to develop a MASTER PLAN which will define what you need, See balding occur over 40 years below
