Ds has just shown me his receding hairline, he has his hair swept forward so I hadn't noticed it before but it is quite severe!
Is it worth taking him to the gp to get hormone levels checked or is this just the start of hair loss for him?
Baldness does run in the family, my dh started losing his hair at 20ish.

I would take him to the GP. I thought my thinning hair was down to age and it turned out I was severely anaemic! It may be normal for your DS but the GP could run some blood tests and check all's well.
