Is This My Temple Receding Or Could It Be A Bad Hairline?

Hey guys I've posted here before and didn't receive any responses. I just have a quick question. I'm not sure if I'm experiencing male pattern baldness. Odds are I am as my father grandfather, cousin and uncle are all bald. However they all went bald by the time they were 25. I am currently 25 and this is the only hairloss I seem to have experienced. The first picture was taken in March of 2017. As you can see my right temple appears to be slowly thinning but I also can't tell if this could be caused from cotton pillows and I always sleep on my right side. It appears to not be too much progression. Nobody ever seems to notice it but myself. I have zero thinning at the crown etc. I'm considering finasteride but I don't want to hop on it if it appears to be nothing to worry about. I maybe see 3-4 hairs on my hand in the shower after washing. I have pics up to 5 years ago of that spot being thin. Even as a kid my right side seemed to be more receded than my left. Again nobody seems to notice it but myself

I think youre balding and receding.

you have to take Finasteride if you want to keep your remaining hair.

and also use minoxidil to regrow that thinning side

Looks like you've been experiencing male pattern baldness for ahwile and your just noticing it or have been in denial.

the temple is missing. These are male hormones androgens. The older a man is, the worse his hair is.

Yes, you're receding at your hairline.
