Hi XXXXXXX
I read your query & your attached report. I understand your anxiety given your father too has male pattern alopecia (from what you describe). Are you married? If so, do you have children & are you anticipating increasing the size of your family?
Is it possible to upload a present photograph of your hair region both front & back views & one from the top in good light & clear please!?
Understand your difficulties in using Mintop. Would you be better off or consider taking a tablet daily for some 6 months or so?
Or would you prefer something more permanent like say for instance a hair transplant?
Once i get the photos & an idea of what exactly you will be willing to go in for, then will be in a position to answer you better.
Await your response
