Am I going into the red?

Well, I was always worse in the crown so in that mode, you have to part on the side and swirl back. It works for a while provided no more hairloss. The issue there is many men keep "swirling" when they have very little left and it looks horrible strewn across the scalp.

Maybe look at Nixon's hairline which was always a weird one. He backcombs because his temples are gone but nothing else. Now that I am in that mode but less so, I look better with bangs or parted in the middle. If I part on the side, my recession is more apparent but females rarely use side parts anyway. My hair now parts itself in the middle. You will have to play around with yours in different parts to see. Sting is another with nicer hair but the hair loss was just like Nixon's and his stayed all these years but he might be using finasteride. But Sting couldn't part his hair on the side either.

I started balding at 19 and I have looked at hairlines ever since and you can see certain patterns again and again. You can't always predict but I wouldn't go untreated just in case.
Well I'm seeing my doctor for mine and maybe a derm, but tbh the derm may just say it's receeding to try get money out of someone who knows nothing about hair. My pictures are on my profile I think, feel free to look. I have a high forehead, but time will tell. I am not going on pills until there is actually bad receeding

They have pics on profiles? I am pretty new here still. Do you have a link? I recommend seeing an endocrinologist or endo as we MtF's say over a dermatologist.

Now wait. I didn't know that you were only 19. Your hair is eminently treatable!
So you're saying I'm balding or no.. did you check the links? I thank you for your opinion but I won't take it as final as I've had mixed answers with my hair. I believe because of the thickness on top and thickness in general. I'm not the person who posted this BTW, I'm a commenter, my hair pictures are in the link I sent you.. But I appreciate ur opinion... I think my hair is probably matured. My doctor said so yesterday,but everyone is entitled to their opinion :/ just interesting how one person said my hair is good and then you say opposite.

Let me look again. I tell folks that I noticed an incipient bald spot the night before my 20th birthday and I have looked intently at hairlines since then searching for familiar patterns. I did think that you were OP. Your hair is still okay but I wouldn't wait to start some treatment as the clock is ticking maybe a little on those temples.....Lol, I am like the Rainman of hairlines....

I can't find a bald spot on my hair, on top is thick just a little back because of my forehead and age I think? And okay

Yes. You are better than I was at 19 but I didn't even notice anything was very different until I did on my 20th birthday. I felt sick and I knew that my life was over as i had lived it. But I found some things that worked for 28 years and then bam, it was back and so I jumped ship as I call it. I loved my hair always so keep what you can keep reasonably. I honestly differ from most guys on here as I see no cures or effective palliatives in the pipeline, maybe forever that are non-hormonal. Even oral minoxidil has been said to have hormonal effects--maybe it was Rob Winter who wrote that but I was like "et tu minoxidil"? which is a line from the play Julius Caesar when he finally admitted his hair was largely gone so they killed him.

So you're saying for now I'm ok? I'm sooo confused ma'am.

Wow, "ma'am. Your are so polite. I am not like those other MtF's since I am non-binary but yes, thanks since I am officially female in the State of Maryland and my name change finally went through after a local judge held it up for a year but I finally shamed him into signing it by filing a motion telling him that I didn't want his name on my name change order so of course, then he issued it the very next day. I kid you not. You look fine. Honestly, it would be better in many ways to see a normal pic of your from the front so I can look at the overall pattern. I usually only post pics from the front of myself as I think it can obscure things when people post temples at different angles. I had to look a couple of times before I realized what I was looking at was one temple. Shoot me a normal one if you via PM or on here and I will be more sure.
