Conte's pattern cannot be classified using the Norwood scale. 

He had extremely severe and shocking diffuse thinning especially on the midscalp  with some of his hairline still remaining and not so much loss on the crown. 

His pattern looked more like an advanced Ludwig 3 pattern. More like a female androgenic alopecia pattern. 

But again hard to classify...

There are many patterns that are not included in the Norwood scale. That's the big problem. Especially diffuse thinners. 

Also the Norwood scale shows the pattern of hairloss. It doesn't measure the amount of hairloss. 

You could be a very early Norwood 6 diffuse thinner and have more hair (pound for pound) than an advanced Norwood 3....

The diffuse hair loss isn’t classified, but the pattern is, I was diffuse Norwood 6. You can still follow the pattern of a Norwood classification and be diffuse. Conte had lost enough hair to be classified Norwood 5a
