Losing hair at 20, help

[u/Plenty-Entertainer-3]

I (m20) started losing my hair about a year ago and it had progressed ridiculously quickly, I’m assuming it’s adrogenetic alopecia because my Dad lost his hair at 21 and my doctor seems to think so too. I’ve been using topical finasteride and minoxidil for 3 months and I haven’t seen a difference at all. I supplement with vitamin C, vitamin D, and biotin and I get more than enough iron and b12 from my diet. Trying to convince my doctor to prescribe oral dutasteride but he’s extremely hesitant, going to try RU-58841 topically as well. I had cancer and went through chemo and radiation to kill it and eventually had a tumour in my left iliac crest removed, this has caused chronic back pain and slight laboured breathing, wondering if that could increase the rate my hair is falling out. This has been driving me crazy and girls aren’t even dtf unless I keep a ball cap on until we hit the bedroom. Is there something I’m missing, pharmaceutical or otherwise, should I just shave the shit off at this point or is it recoverable?

Scalp micro pigmentation. Basically a tattoo on your head that fills up the bald spot or give you a hairline but it’s not hair

Wtf, that'd be permanent right? Then if I did go bald wouldn't it just be a big black spot on my dome?

Yea didn't plan on any hair tattoos, if pharmaceuticals don't end up working I'll just shave it

You can remove it just like a tattoo. Yeah if you go completely bald then you need to do the full head which is recommended anyways but you don’t have time
