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?

I'm 27 would you say there's a possibility of being a noorwood 5 plus in the future without meds?

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.

There’s a huge possibility that your hair will stabilize or even benefit if commence finasteride now.

my father had fuller hair at your age and ended up norwood 6/7 with late 50s now

 

if you want to be sure you need to consult a doctor who looks at your hair with a microscope

looking at old pics id say with 30 the hairline and corner started to receeded

then a few years later the bald spot appeared

then with 50 i could see him lose ground drastically including a dipping crown

 

im sure you could have see miniaturization all over the norwood 6 area with a microscope in his midthirties though

There are a number of men whose hair loss speeds up a bit in their 50s and 60s even if it's been stable or only very slowly thinning for a long time. 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.
