It seems like you are diffuse thinning. It's difficult to tell by how long your hair is, which is why from now I would recommend you cut you hair a lot shorter so you can keep track more easily. Long hair gives you a false sense of security as it masks the truth.
If you can shave it that would be great because it will make applying treatments so much easier and possibly more effective.
I would recommend you try Microneedling twice a week and using topical Minoxidil 5% every day, twice a day but only skip the minoxidil application on the day you microneedle.
If you can afford it, I'd recommend using a DermPen type Microneedling device instead of a Dermaroller, since it's more efficient and less painful.
Dr Pen M8 or similar, or the Derminator 2 are really good derma pens to go for.
One of them come with a 9 of 12 set of needle cartridges, which will last you 4 to 5 months which is great, provided you use 1 every 2 weeks.
Theres a few reason for changing it after every use. But simply try to change it after every use for best results.
Each cartridge is approximately $5 so in a month that's $10.
Its a good investment to make for your hair that won't f*** your body and hormones up unlike anti-androgens like Finasteride, Dutasteride, etc.
If you can't afford a Derma Pen type Microneedling device, then just use a Dermaroller type Microneedling device. It's not as effective and can hurt a lot more but it should do the job provided you use the correct technique.
