You have a male hairline, I don't see any thinning or fading! But as a rule, the male line recedes over the years. If there are men on your father's or mother's side with baldness Norwood 3-6, then most likely there will be baldness

You really are not at the stage that balding is noticeable, if you do have androgen alopecia. It is possible that you might
not have it.
Most men do have a "mature"hairline after puberty, even men who don't have androgen alopecia.
White people usually go balder earlier because they have more hair follicles than other races.
You should just go to a reputable dermatologist. They will probably do the following.
1. Track your hair follicles using a magnifying device to determine miniaturization.
2. Perform blood tests. It is unlikely you have thyroid disease or iron deficiency, the latter is unlikely because you are male.
3. Perform a physical exam.
There's no shame in that. I did that, and so did my son.
Also please note that people do naturally lose hair as they get older, even people who aren't balding. That's not anything though to worry about because it will be decades before that happens in your case.
