Receding hairline 
Your hairline might start to look uneven, you’ve noticed something different about - you can’t put your finger on it - but it’s uneven. Thinning enough for you to notice, even though other people haven’t noticed.
So with a receding hairline - this is something that happens as we are all ageing. You can have a receding hairline and not lose lots more hair. Male Pattern Baldness is beginning if you’re noticing a receding hairline in combination with thinning at the temples -
The receding hairline, which an M shape as the two sides recede at a faster rate than the middle of the scalp. Look out for Hair thinning around the temples and the crown .

For men, a prescription drug called Finasteride is a popular choice
I’ve got an entire video on this - I’m putting in here - T
This drug comes with side effects, including.
- impotence,
- loss of interest in sex,
- trouble having an orgasm,
The side effects may happen to around 5% of men who take Finasteride,
They can continue for some time after you’ve stopped taking Finasteride
To potentially limit the side effects:
Ask your doctor about the recurrence of side effects on their previous patients
and reducing your dosage.
Do note that women cant take Finasteride - and pregnant women, shouldnt even touch the packaging because it can harm their unborn baby.
Another product that works well against hair loss is Minoxidil -
