Senior Member Thehairupthere Posted August 8, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted August 8, 2012 The first thing you need to do is go see a recommended doctor from this forum and have him/her inspect your scalp. If they determine that you are experiencing typical male pattern baldness and nothing more serious than they will almost certainly recommend you use medication such as rogaine and finasteride for at least 1 year and then reevaluate. You are very young and usually patients at your age are strongly urged to use the medication first, and I happen to agree with that. The medication should at the very least stop or slow down drastically further hair loss, as well as possibly regrowing miniaturizing hairs. I am a consultant for Dr. True and Dr. Dorin. These opinions are my own. Dr. Robert True and Dr. Robert Dorin are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
