Find a mirror- or a friend- and search about the pattern and exact location of your hair loss. Does it appear patchy or as a receding hair line?

Do you suffer from a receding hair line or thinning in your frontal scalp? Is there anybody in your family who experiences hair loss? This condition usually shows that you are having male pattern baldness; or in medical terms, Androgenetic Alopecia.
