The topic says it all. Is it 35, 40? I used to know this but forgot. Thanks guys.

It might not be as starightforward as that when you put hairloss drugs into the picture.

Does using the drugs make it stabilize sooner?

Or does it take its own time anyway?

Obviously. Assume no drugs are in the picture.

As an older guy I can tell you that hairloss does not necessarily stabilize @ 35 or 40. I continued to loose hair through my 40's.
Actually I had my most devestaing hair loss in my 40"s.
Every one is different & thier hairloss is unique. There is not any particular age when hairloss stabilizes. It's all in the genes.

I know this is generalising but I read somewhere that after about ten years mpb does slow down a bit. Cheers

Not true.

Let me just back up my "Not True" Statement by telling you that my MPB began in my early 20's & slowly progressed until my mid to late 30's. Then my hairloss accelerated very quickly through my fourties leaving me a NW6+.

Now at soon to be 52 years old my already bald crown is deteriorating down & outwards.

I don't want to destroy anyones hope but I do want to correct any myths going around such as MPB slows down at a certain age. While that may be true for some people it is not something that is a fact for all MPB sufferers.

Atomic, do you use propecia or did you ever use it?

My grandfather is now 83, sadly he has dementia and has been in a nursing home for some years now.

Anyway, at this present time he has a strip of hair around an inch wide, but in a photo at my parents' house taken on his 60th birthday I would've classed him as a NW VI. So since his 60th birthday 23 years ago he has had continued loss (though, I'm uncertain when it stopped, if it has).
