What you are probably suffering is what we call as Androgenic alopecia. In the initial stages you can try medical management with Minoxidil application and Finasteride tablets. There are other treatments like Platelet rich plasma injection etc. If there is no response from these, hair transplant might be the last resort.
Book an online appointment with a Plastic surgeon for proper assessment and advice.

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.
