17M Concerned About Thinning on Back and Crown, Unable to See Dermatologist for a Year

I can’t go to the dermatologist until I turn 18, about a full year from now. I’ve noticed thinning on the back, crown, and pretty much all over my head. How bad is it? Photos are sorted from most recent to oldest.





Looks like you’re noticing early signs of thinning, likely AGA. Since you can’t visit a dermatologist now, consider starting with topical minoxidil to help maintain what you’ve got. Finasteride is another option once you’re able to consult. Treatments can take months to show results, so be patient and check in with yourself. Keep it simple and steady until you can explore more with a specialist. Good luck!
