Hey from Sweden guys

I noticed that my temples were a bit high 1,5 years ago. Since then I have been obsessed with my hairline.

So my story: 24 year old guy. Never though of hair loss before. My dads a NW0 or whatever you call it, perfect hairline at 53 with absolutely no hair loss whatsoever. Same for my grandad on my fathers side before he passed on. My grandad had a receding hairline before he died at 40 something. I've read that the mothers side is more dominant when it comes to hair loss. My mother got very thick hair so I got very thick hair but unfortunatetly also the baldness genes. My uncle on my mothers side is a NW3 at 53. He said that his hairline started receding at 30 but he is not the most observant guy in town.

Now I regularly takes some pics of my hairline.

Here are some:

How bad is it?

I would say maybe NW2. It is not too late to start treatment. Decide whether or not you are willing to do anything about it.

finasteride will stop your hairloss. Nothing else would be necessary.

your hair may stay like that forever though even without treatment, but probably not as likely as it continuing to get worse

For now, the side effects of finasteride scares me off. But if it gets worse might try it. For now I'm trying to closesly observe any changes. I haven't been available to detect any changes since winter 1,5 years ago when I understood I had a receding hairline. However from what I read, once it starts it always continue....

Every who's not one finasteride always think that sides are guaranteed.. Come one man! Seriously? If you take finasteride and get genuine sides I'll give you 100 bucks!
