Man these guys are going to hunt you down and kill you be prepared lol

First off you hair looks fantastic
Second it is possible you are having very very early sign of it if your part is wide because my hair was super dense and for years Dr thought i was nuts that i felt it was thinning.

Check your family history though..
if you have no family history then its just how your hair is...
Is your hair fine but a lot of it? That can make part look wider.
Hey can you look at my post and tell me advice

In the first pictures the crown is starting the process. I'm an expert on crowns. You are young still. This will be the first place that you will notice. Unless a miracle.
Front and density on top look good though

I used the double cowlick excuse at your age.
My crown was like that for 20 + years and became very noticeable about 5 years ago. Now diffuse thinning on top. I still have a good head of hair for my age but the crown will blow out. I was lucky because it was so slow. But even in my early 20s a friend of mine used to say that I would go thin in the back first. He was right. Might take 10 years might take 30 but it will start at the crown and March forward. You will keep most of your hairline though with top thinning out.
Hard to predict though, some accelerate around thirty some only have a bit and stop.

Topical finasteride with minoxidil. I started in November 2018 and I've pretty much stopped it and thickened it a bit here it is today. 52 years

It was about the same. If I hadn't started on the topicals I'm sure I would have a bald spot with diffusing on top.
As long as the topicals keep working I will be OK.
Hope to keep it for another 20 years, but doubful

UPDATE

Okay. So I’ve been on finasteride for about 14 months. I do not think I’m maintaining. What are your thoughts ?
