Have you considered having a hair transplant? My hair is thinning as well. Like you the men and women in my heritage had thin hair as they aged. I am looking into it and will let you know what I think. At this point, my boobs are Foobs so what's a little more "reconstruction?" The anti-hormonals are tough on our hairlines as well, but you are ER neg so I suppose that is not contributory in your case as I believe it is in mine.
