I think with medications, which includes (finasteride, vitamins and minoxidil) that particular area would be much improved.

without medication you'll lose ground and need more HTs

have you tried a lower dose?  you can do half a tablet every other day and still get benefits.

Go for the Topical mixture of fin & minoxidil. I think you'll still get some benefit

I don’t know just have to know your donor area is limited. You can use beard and body hair if you run out but it’s never as good as scalp hair.

You should take finasteride for 1 year and then reassess your situation. You can always use some dermmatch or couvre to cover the balding crown but i think with your hairloss pattern it is still too early to get a hairtransplant right now.

never start at the crown first, never

There is a funny case.
Couto planned a 4000FU transplant.
While he was performing the HT, he saw that the donor area was poorer that he thought so he reduced the extractions to about 1600.
He misunderstood the patient's request and placed all the grafts in the crown area.
The final result is embarrassing.
