Regular Member jjalay Posted January 31 Regular Member Share Posted January 31 Send you a dm. If you feel that you are loosing hair you should get on finasteride. You are definitely not a NW 4 with diffuse thinning. How old are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowone can tell you something judging from these photos. YOu need to get your hiar examined from a doctor who specialises in this and if you have AA also check your family history. If you have a lot of miniaturization at this age the best thing you can do is get on medication, otherwise your hairloss will progress even furhter, even to a NW5 if this is your genetics.

This is something you really need to watch out for. Some guys will think their hair loss has stopped and is now stable and that's all they'll ever lose, but they need to at least be aware that it could speed up again and keep an eye on it, so they can get back on meds if they decide to before waiting too long.
