Hi punkrocker
You've made the most important step by joining this network, well done. Like jonnyboy71 said get some pics on here. As far as meds are concerned, they really only work in the crown and midsection. So if it's your hairline which is the issue, ht procedure is really your only option. Like you I was an Norwood 3 when I started my ht journey 3yrs ago. Advice, ask! And asked again and plenty of research. The more positive reviews you get, the easier it gets to make a decision. Feel free to ask any questions.
Regards Tony.
