19M what type of hairloss is this? appreciate any help

[whattodoo]

my left temple started receding when i was 16. last year i started getting issues with dandruff for the first time in my life, and for the last year I’ve noticed a lot more hair loss when I shower. What is happening?

What do you mean "what is happening"? You are losing hair. That is what is happening. If you suspect that your own judgement may not be accurate then have one from a professional (you are only providing one picture).

After that you need to inform yourself about the treatments that you can take - strongly advise to look into anything that has to do with PRLR.

so is this male pattern baldness or something else?

Agree with Descending Dog, if you're really concerned and serious about doing something see a dermatologist, particularly one known for hair issues. While you're making that arrangement, get some ketoconazole and zinc shampoo.

You seen a dermatologist to confirm the type of Hairloss?

It’s a little diffuse.. Dandruff can make hair shed…so try to eliminate it…

It doesn’t look at all thinning to me, nor any balding to be seen .

Dermatologists are not this outstanding group of hair experts that people seem to think. Just go see a dermatologist but when I went, dude refused to prescribe me estrogen because I was only 20 years old. He literally mussed my hair up and said "man up" so you can have children. I was like eh, it is only 1984 but one day, I will get my hands on some estrogen and just see. Changed my life but I already have lots of children. I lost all of my self-esteem and it was an untenable situation for me, having a beautiful, rich wife whom I used to exceed looks-wise until, well, she never ages and looks extremely young with very nice hair which I hope to match but you gotta have goals in life.
