What Should a 23 Year Old Male with Norwood 4A Pattern Do?

Do you recommend that a 23 year old male with a receding hairline and visible thinning to the point of resembling a Norwood 4A should hold off on transplant options or begin preparing for treatment?

Assuming that you already started Propecia at least 8 months ago, then you need to see a good doctor to build a Master Plan. If you and the doctor hit it off and bond and he/she develop that plan, a hair transplant may be appropriate. I generally do not like to do surgery on 23 year olds, but I do violate my rule based upon the needs of my patient and the Master Plan that is built between us.
