Hair loss in males is very common. It can be controlled with proper medication.

Hi...hair thinning on the front of scalp can be a combination of early onset make pattern balding and stress induced hair loss. I see this everyday in my hair fall clinic. Since you are young, you will need a combination of medications to control the male pattern balding and the excess hairfall. If the thinning is significant then you may have to consider a hair transplant surgery in addition, which will restore your hair line in a natural way. You can check photos of my hair transplant surgery results on my website.
Next Steps
if you wish to get medications that will help your condition then you would need to contact my clinic to arrange an appointment, in person or video...
