Receding hairline at the age of 20
Respected doctors, I am suffering from receding hairline at the age of 20 and i guess it is due to male pattern baldness. i am only using minoxidil 5 % and follihair tablets. I am not using finasteride tablets as the latter has side effects which i read on internet. i have just entered stage 3 baldness. I want to ask will my hair regrow on temples / hairline ? I have shaved my head a month ago and started applying minoxidil twice a day since 1 month. i am very worried about my hairline. Are there any other suggestions which will help my hairline to regrow back?

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding  from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised  and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. Please contact me with photos using online consult option for proper examination and treatment. Do not start treatment without consulting
