21 years old w/ tempels. NW7 pattern?

[dimitry]

Im a soon to be 22 year old man wich have started loosing my tempels (think its a litthe thinner on the middle of my head as well).. I started thinking about it early, maybe when I was 18 or so, but it wasnt any bad back then. Last year i started to worry a bit more and started to read about hairloss. I bought keto shampoo, and started taking a small dose of finasteride EOD (0,25).

To start with I had some pain in my balls now and then, but it went over. I stopped after couple of months because I was scared of stories with depression etc. I kinda didnt know if I could have had better psyche if I wasnt on finasteride, so I as I said, I stopped taking it.

It has been 1 year since then, and I have started to worry again. My dad had a NW7 in his early 30's, so maybe Im going in his footsteps. Dont know.. Im gonna attach some photos for you too see. I guess its not a very big difference in 1 year, but I think I see something going on. What do you guys recomend? Start up with the finasteride again? Maybe add minoxidil? Feel free to share some experiences

Lol bruh, that is not a Norwood 7 pattern. You're like a Norwood 2 currently and you did thin a little in your temples since last year. I would recommend getting on finasteride again.

I still feel like my hairline have receded a bit in one year. Specially in the front. I know its hard to say if Im in a NW7 pattern, just thought about it because my father also had great hair when he was at my age, and then became a NW7. A better question would be if im actually receedeing? It may be that the picures are somewhat different in angels or lightning, dont know.

Started taking finasteride eod once again. Should I add minoxidil? Anyone having some thoughts about it?

No don't add minoxidil just yet. Give Finasteride a year and see where you are before adding.

Bought it today.. Thinking about adding a little just to the tempels once a day while I take a small dose of finasteride every third day to start with.
