xherjosh Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 For 5 years I've been worried and stressed with hair. I've been through times where I've been certain I'm going bald and times where I don't think I'm going bald. I have OCD so I really stress and over think a lot of things. My dad is nearly 70 and has a full head of hair, my mums side are mainly Norwood 3 +. Everyone in my family, friends, girlfriend tells me that my hair is absolutely fine and nothing is changed. So far I find my hair acceptable and looks fine, but the worries that I have are that I'm slowly thinning or losing hair. I've checked pictures from when I was younger and compared with pictures from 5 years ago and I don't see any major change with hairline position, but I'm not sure if the thickness of my hair has changed as when I look in 2 mirrors under a light I sometimes think the back of my hair is thicker, which then makes me think I'm thinning on top. Here are some pictures which I would like everyone else's opinion on as I'm really confused sometimes as I can see a pattern almost on the top of my head of where a man would lose their hair if they were suffering from MPB. I recently shaved my hair quite short. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member JON86 Posted January 7, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2016 looks like to me your crown is thinning . You don't need surgery but I would try rogaine. It doesn't look that bad so don't freak out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need surgery but I would try rogaine.It doesn't look that bad so don't freak out. Yeah that's what I always questioned about my crown. My doctor told me it was just a "double crown" and it gives the impression of thinning. This is a picture when the hair was a bit longer. Thank you very much for your input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member JON86 Posted January 7, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2016 That last picture looks great like you aren't losing your hair. Important thing is to know your families history of hair loss. How is your fathers , grandparents loss and patterns. Prepare for the future. You look great in my opinion. You could if you choose use rogaine in the crown and if it gets worse take propecia. You don't look like someone that needs surgery in my opinion.

Senior Member Petchski Posted January 7, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2016 You are not going bald. And yeah that's a double crown, i have one too, or did have one i should say. The flash on a camara is very bright and harsh, but you're good, you can worry about something else now instead -------------------------------------- My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Feller Dr Feller Jan '09 2000 grafts Dr Lorenzo Dec '15 2222 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member MrGio-WHTCClinic Posted January 19, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted January 19, 2016 From the photos, you don't seem to show any signs of MPB hair loss. I won't hurt to get a couple of medical recommendations to help you further understand hair loss. You can still be affected from thinking that you are balding, so you may want to focus your energy on something else. Thanks for sharing. My opinions are my own.
