Hi, I'm an 18 year old Asian male, and I fear I may be experiencing significant hair loss. My father is bald, as well as my maternal grandfather so I know I'll probably be bald at some stage.i think I'm experiencing some recession in my hair line as well as substantial amounts of hair falling out whenever I'm sitting down and looking at surfaces.

i think my hairs have thinned quite significantly in the last year or so, and my hair isn't growing as fast as it was growing before, my hair at the front feels pretty thin tbh. My trips to the barbers haven't been too frequent either.

my father started balding in his 30s, but his father himself isn't bald at the sprightly age of 95 and still has quite a head of hair. I reckon I might start balding a bit earlier than my dad did. Here are some pictures attached. Am I experiencing enough hair loss spot start getting worried? How can I delay this further? What do you think?

Also if I'm going to consider using romaine/prophecies when balding becomes more prominent, what's the minimum age I should start using it so my growth/development/adolescent hormones aren't affected?

the minimum age is when you finish puberty. At 18 you shouldn't have a problem. If you have male pattern baldness you should start finasteride/propecia

i'm 18 too but my hair looks way worse than yours. For me your hair looks perfect. Better wait for some time instead of starting medication.. Even if you decide to go for it finasteride would be more than enough :)
