Hi all!
This is probably going to be long, so apologies and thank you in advance if you read it!
I am a 23 (soon 24) year old diffuse thinner. My balding began quite early, I have had a NW1 hairline at 15-16. That's where it started, but otherwise it was not that noticeable. About 2-3 years ago I noticeably (at least for me) started thinning. Especially in the crown area. Also the hairline receded a bit, but I am okay with that now, my main problem is the crown and the thinning. Also my hair is quite greasy, but maybe it has nothing to do with this.
I have two questions for now:
The first is: my father has a similar balding pattern to me, of course he is balder than me, but the way I see it I am headed the same way, although his hairloss started later than mine, and he always had straight,thin hair, while I had thicker, curly/wavy hair all my life (except for the past 2-3 years). He is about a NW5 but it is hard to tell because the NW scale is not perfect for us diffuse thinners as far as I understand. My paternal grandpa was also a NW5, but he as well went bald much later than I am going and this grandpa of mine had the similar hair qualities to mine. (My maternal grandfather was a solid NW0.) So who might I take after? What's the possibilty that I will be balder than them? Why did it start this early for me?
The second: I feel that my donor area is not strong, but I think it has been like this as far as I can remember. I upload some pics and I would really appreciate if you could tell me how it looks and whether I am a candidate for HT in the future. At 23-24 I know I am early for that, but just for planning I would like to hear your opinions on it.
Well that's all, as you can see I have a lot of questions, I would be very happy if you helped me with them! Thank you in advance again.
