Is This A Sign Of Male Pattern Baldness?

I am a 20-year-old male and I have noticed that my hair is not as thick as it was when I was 18. I also noticed that my crown is a lot more thin and noticeable.

That's almost definetly male pattern baldness. Get on finasteride if you want to keep your hair.

I recently began taking finasteride, I have also been thinking about putting castor oil in my hair as well to help with growth.

Good for you man, most people take awhile to start finasteride and stay in denial for long and lose lots of hair but you've taken the most important step. Also, how's your hairline looking? What norwood are you currently?

I'm not really sure what norwood I'd be at

That's quite hard to tell, do you have pictures of your hairline when you were younger? That thin patch/natural widows peak will probably get thicker with finasteride, or did you shave that off yourself because a lot of men shave of their widows peak.
