Brief Answer:
Androgenic alopecia

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed androgenic alopecia. It is very common in males.
I treat such cases with the combination of topical minoxidil solution to be applied twice daily and tablet Androanagen 1 tablet daily in night.
Take this combination for 6 months you will get good results.
This combination is safe as well as effective and is available over the counter.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in providing you a better way of management.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
