Talk to Dermatologist on Early Male Pattern Baldness

I’m 23 years old and experiencing hair loss mainly from the sides of my head, forming an M-shaped hairline. It seems like early Male pattern baldness. I’ve noticed gradual recession rather than sudden shedding. No major patchy loss—just the temples going back. I’m considering starting treatment with Finasteride and Minoxidil, but I’m unsure about: Whether this is the right time to start Possible side effects (especially finasteride) Long-term commitment and results Would appreciate advice from people with similar experience or professionals. Should I start both together or try one first?
