I started going bald pretty early and I’ve been shaving my head for about 4-ish years now. I started HRT along with dutasteride and (topical) minoxidil in my mid-20s, and after ~3 months I’m shocked at how much hair I’ve gotten back. I’m still shaving it and my hairline has only barely moved forward, but a lot of follicles have come back from the dead. There’s not much research as far as I can tell, so YMMV, but it’s worth a shot if it’s something you’re concerned about. Even if my hair didn’t change, HRT is still worth it.
