Is My Crown Thinning/am I Balding? And Is Losing A Few Short Hairs A Day Normal? (18m)

[The Last Waterbender]

So yeah since a few months I notice that every day I lose a few short hairs a day about 3 cm or something. I have always had a high hairline with receding temples so I don't know if I'm actually receding. However, what concerns me the most is my crown and losing short hairs.

I already went to my doctor to see what's up with my hair, but she wasn't really that helpful. She just went through my hair for a little bit and said I had a lot of hair and she didn't see anything bad. She also didn't want me to prescribe finasteride because of the side effects...

I'm not 100% sure if this is balding but I'm really freaking out over it.

Ur crown looks very normal. Your temples look like a NW2 but alot of people stay at that stage and never progress, NW2 isn't really balding tbh.

Obviously I can’t say 100% but I think you have mild balding

your temples angles 90 degree. but chill, look like you came to this condition from many yearly like atleast 5-6 years. If its receeding like that slow, no need any medicines.

whats your family history of hairloss?

My grandfather mothers side was bald very early like in his early 20s, my father bald at early 30s, and my brother is almost bald at 22. He has diffuse thinning I think so I can see his scalp through his hair.
