I'm a 20 year old male who started noticing hair thinning in the temple area started using minoxidil which has been wonderful but recently I started noticing thinning in my crown. So my questions are 1. Is it because I used minoxidil to block the temple from thinning that's why it moved to the crown 2. If I stop the minoxidil will the effects reverse? Meaning will my crown become fuller and my temple start thinning.

No minoxidil didn't shift the thinning. It is how it moves. And no stopping minoxidil will not bring hair back. But the temples again will start loosing.
