If you're noticing hair loss, the first step should be medication.

Tahir,

If you are seeing your scalp now and weren't previously (as in, a couple of years ago), then you very well may be suffering from male pattern baldness.  What made you start not noticing your thinning hair now?  Was your hair wet or dry when you noticed it?  Do you have any photos showing the area you are concerned about that you could post for us?

In my opinion, consult a dermatologist or trichologist who can evaluate your scalp under magnification who can determine whether or not your hair is actually miniaturizing due to genetic alopecia.  If it is, you can consider taking early steps by trying non-surgical methods of combatting hair loss such as Propecia (finasteride) and Rogaine (minoxidil).

I hope this helps.
