There are millions, billions maybe, of men who are losing or have lost their hair.
Why does it bother you? It's notmal. I can't imagine spending a cent on something to stop it happening, especially when it's pretty much universally known that none of the miracle cures actually work.
My hairline has been receding since I was 18. It's now at dracula sort of level. I just have a 1/2" buzzcut done every couple of weeks, it looks fine.
I've had thinning/receding hair, and hence a very short buzz cut, since my early 20s. I have never had any problems.
No woman has ever commented on my hair, in terms of whether it made any difference to her decision to get into a relationship, or a one night stand. Ever.
I'm thinking that poster can;t get laid, and is blaming his hair. I'm thinking he's barking up the wrong tree, and should take a shower now and then.

I'm old....54. A few years ago, I started thinning out on top. It didnt bother me much - until my kids started ragging on me to save what I had.
So the wife bought Rogaine. I started out using it twice a day. Great results.
A few years later, I still have pretty full hair on top...and I use Rogaine once, before I go to bed.
It doesn't do a good job at regaining lost hair, but it absolutely works at halting further hair loss.
You start this at the very first sign of balding, and you'll stop it. This is exactly my situation, meanwhile all my male relatives are horseshoe bald.
A few months back I started dating again. Was I rusty? Yes. Also, I guess I had forgotten or maybe never realized just how important hair is to a lot of women. One woman told me that I have everything she's looking for in a man except hair. I was stunned. At first I thought she was kidding. Another was a setup through a mutual friend, and despite what I thought was an excellent first date, the feedback was, "Really nice guy, but I don't do bald." She was actually upset that our friend didn't tell her ahead of time that I was bald. I've been online on a few dating sites and have not gotten any responses. A few I have written to have not replied. Is this because I'm bald? Have I been sheltered in my previous marriage to the way the dating world works, or what? I mean, am I supposed to do something about this, like wear hair, or do I just hold out for another Janet who doesn't care? This is all pretty confusing.

I'd venture to say that being the Prince of England maybe makes her puke in her mouth a little less whan she has to sleep with him.
Having a real fairytale Princess wedding with every woman in the whole world envying you and knowing you'll be Queen one day and your kids will go on to become King or Queen might make her overlook the hairline

Congratulations on your decision. Your new medication should suppress the creation of testosterone, perhaps regrowing hair while causing erectile dysfunction.
