  1. Hi, Guys, Thanks for the responses! Yes I saw hair everywhere. On the bed, on the floor, in the shower, on my comb. So, I started propecia after i was losing hundreds of hairs per day, and my hairs near my corners (temples) were miniaturizing so much that they are see through now. I was told that bitemporal recession and minaturization are defining signs of MPB so, i hopped on 0.5mg finasteride. Since i've been taking it (around a week and a half) , hairfall has been a lot less with the only real side being a somewhat loss of libido. The hairloss has stabilized atleast for now, but my hair obviously has not recovered and my temples took a hit. my father has had insurance problems so i just booked a derm right now. temple 1 temple 2 and the worst part is, this change (temple/hair corner hair falling out) happened in literally two months!! Thanks Again guys, Mmm
  2. Hey, guys, I’m a 20 year old, who, after coming back from a family visit to india, realized that he’s balding (mostly around the hairline corners/temple) ! I’ve compared my current hair shape to previous hair, and it seems to be a pretty sudden change… before the trip I seemed fine… My frontal hair has lost some hair but has not receded yet… but I’m still inclined to say that it’s MPB because my mom’s side doesn’t have any hair left (they’re 50 tho…). So, I noticed that my temples have been receding (slowly but surely) and my crown appears to be getting larger. I’ve just started applying Kirkland’s Min 5% and taking a bunch of vitamins (iron, saw palmetto, biotin, etc). my frontal hair has been light since I was like 7 (as it’s fairly long) but the hair on the back of my head has usually been pretty thick…Also, I don’t think there is a lot of miniaturization present… (atleast not that noticeable to my untrained eyes) yet. I am definetely shedding though. hairline crown crown (2) side front hairup temple pic http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s166/mazhar11215/20130913_170720.jpg]temple So the Questions I’d like to ask you guys is… 1. Is this for sure MPB? 2. Is it definite enough to convince the doctor to give me a prescription so I can jump on Finasteride (I’m considering taking it)? 3. Should I apply Min twice a day or once? Thanks so much guys!!
