Brief Answer: androgenic alopecia- use minoxidil Detailed Answer: Dear Mr. XXXXXXX Thanks for your query and sorry for delay in answering your question Your photographs show that you are suffering from male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia. The condition can be managed by local application of a topical drug containing minoxidil for local application along with oral medicines containing biotin, calcium pantothenate etc. One can expect visible improvement in approximately 3 -4 months. Treatment should only be commenced after consultation with a qualified dermatologist. Regards Dr.Rohit Batra
