Am I Balding? I Cant Tell Im Freaked. I Know How I Look Without Hair. I Look Awful.

I think my crown might be thinning. Everyone i talk to says my hair looks fine. But at both temples i feel im losing hair. Its much worse on the left side. My father is 51 and not balding at all. My mother has thinner hair. i feel like on the left temple and maybe only the left temple the hairline is actually gone. Like in the middle it looks very strong hairline wise. But on the left its like the hairline that should be strong and connect to the middle is just gone. I got pictures. some pictures are in light. All of the pictures except the ones where my hair is shaved are days apart. My head was shaved 9 months ago.

Bro how old are you? It looks like u have the slightest amount of recession on one of ur temples. U look pretty old so u will probably be fine. If i had to guess u will be norwood 3 in ur 50s or 60s at worst

At age of 23 facing that level of hair loss is a case of little worry. Have made any big change in your diet recently? or recovered from any kind of sickness?

Na you be alright. Check up every 6 months to year.

Wtf your natural hair looks like a discount job from a Turkish clinic that packed your hairline with 3s and 4s.

But no ur not balding get out of here

Your hair looks pretty normal for a 23-year-old. Your father not being bald is not relevant. male pattern baldness (Male Pattern Baldness) caused by three elements, genetics (not always apparent), hormones, and environment.

Genetics, it's why my dad at 80, has more hair than I do at 55, but I went bald as his dad did, in my 20s. Or, why my one cousin at 54 has an almost full head of hair, his dad started to go bald in his 20s, like his younger brother, who was totally bald at college graduation.

Hormones, it's DHT, and you need to have the genetic pre-disposition to go bald to go along with it.

Environment, high stress can accelerate it when the other two are in place. Extreme starvation or nutritional imbalance. Most folks today have a shitty diet, but even today's junk food provides enough vitamins, minerals, protein, electrolytes, etc.

They did a study in Israel, why young soldiers are going bald faster than their fathers, even a decade or more earlier. Stress was considered a major contributing factor.

And... I vote for the buzzed hair/beard combo, quite sexy and masculine looking.

If you are not eating well then diet is the major concern you should care about. So take a balanced diet, exercise regularly & adopt a healthy lifestyle. I am sure your doctor will also suggest you the same.

Unless you are extremely malnourished, diet is NOT going to save your hair. However, no doctor will tell you NOT to improve your diet.

I know doctors always suggest to improve your diet. But you can not ignore the role of diet & healthy lifestyle to fight with hair loss problem.
