I’m 19 years old. My father, and mother’s father lost most of their hair. The rest of the men in my family have a full head of hair. Could the Accutane cause me to begin balding at an earlier age?

Hairline looks like receding to me, I don't think any medication could trigger balding. Again this is my opinion and what it is looking like to me. To be sure get checked by a Dermatologist.

From the only picture you posted of your hairline, to me, it looks like it is receding, could be better if you can post some more pictures of your hairline from different views i.e side, top and front with hair pushed backward so that the hairline is clearly visible. Also look for thinning at the temples and small baby hairs in the front of the hairline.You think my hairline is receding? Is it normal for that to begin at such a young age?
I don't think it is normal for hairline to recede at 19, that is typical Male pattern baldness traits. I also started receding around 19. Again that is my opinion, but if you yourself feeling that something is wrong with your hair then don't remain in doubts, get it checked by a dermatologist as soon as possible.
