can i ask from the photos i posted do you think that my hair and hairline are fine or am i possibly balding or thinning
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

are you sure that i’m balding or do you think that it could be natural, it’s just i’ve always had a uneven hairline since before puberty and one of the sides seem perfectly fine

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.

is it possible that my hairline is just asymmetrical because if showed my face you would notice that on the side where my hairline is higher up that side of my face is also higher up when compared to the other side so is there a possibility that it is naturally like that

bro you definitely have AA but thats nothing to be ashamed of because literally 4 in every 5 men have it. youre in fact lucky in your disposition because you have determination to eliminate it at an unusually young age. do what you have to do and dont listen to detractors, unless of course you genuinely agree with what theyre saying, in that case rethink your plans.

none of us asked to be born. you have freewill to make whatever out of your life you want it to. feel free to shamelessly look around at others and use your observations to make your decisions for you. but all i can say is that going on HRT was THE single best decision of MY life thus far.
