Personally feel like hair is getting thinner. I'm 25 years old. W? Also do you see a big difference from the other pictures in the post i have linked^ "i am worried"?

Thanks!

I understand the stress you're feeling, but I still don't think it's warranted based on what's going on. There might be a slight recession (or potentially just a maturing of your hairline), but I don't think this is anything to panic about, as that wouldn't necessarily mean it will continue. 

That said, for your own peace of mind and to get clear answers, I would set up an appointment with a specialist. A dermatologist would be able to tell you if there's anything going on with your scalp that gets to be addressed. For example, if your scalp is dry and itchy, that may lead to more hair fall. If you address that, then the hair fall may subside and the quality of your hair may improve. 

If you want more specific reassurance in regards to potential MPB, I would set up an appointment with a leading hair restoration surgeon simply to get an evaluation. Make sure you're choosing someone who performs miniaturization tests, as this will be the indicator if there is indeed hair loss going on and to what extent. 

In the meantime, I really don't believe you have any reason to be in a panic at the moment. Your stress is coming more from a fear of "what might happen" than anything related to what actually "is happening". Stay present, focus on getting information/finding a solution, and trust that you have what it takes to handle whatever it is (if anything) that's going on. 

I am a patient advocate for Dr. Parsa Mohebi in Los Angeles, CA. My views/opinions are my own and don't necessarily reflect the opinions of Dr. Mohebi and his staff.

Your hair looks great in the pictures, but if you’re noticing a recession then as pkipling suggests you can get a consultation with a good hair surgeon including a miniaturization test to see what, if anything is going in.

The medication Finasteride helps you keep your existing hair for as long as possible. The best time to start taking it, IMO, is before you have significant loss. For you, at age 25, that is right now. But there are potential side effects. Talk to a qualified doctor. If you need help finding one, ask the forum.
