Brief Answer:
Androgenetic alopecia

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

You seem to have androgenetic alopecia. It is characterized by hair loss and thinning from the front, mid and vertex part of the scalp and is also accompanied by receding anterior hair line. I suggest you to use minoxidil 5% solution, 1ml, twice daily on scalp. In addition I suggest you to take an oral finasteride 1mg tablet. Both of these are approved remedies for androgenetic alopecia in males.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
