Is This Really Not male pattern baldness? I'm Still Unsure

A few days ago I made a post regarding some worries I had over the finasteride "horror" stories, with some pictures of my hair. A majority of the responses I got were people telling me that I wasn't actually balding. To those of you who answered, thank you. I felt a lot better for a few days, but I'm still unsure.

I've attached some pictures here. Now, as I said before, I've never been quite clear on what I'm looking for, and I know my hairline doesn't really show the classic "M" shape everyone refers to, but isn't that miniaturization extending a fair distance into my hairline in the center, and on the left temple? I'm not sure, but I thought it was. When I wrote my first post, I was convinced enough that I'd actually gotten some finasteride through an online pharmacy, but I certainly don't want to take (and spend money on) a drug I don't need, if I really don't need it.

Attached are some pictures of my current hairline, along with one of me as a child, just to show that I've always had a very high hairline.

Any input you all could give would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I think you are okay, but save the pics and compare in s couple of years, if you show definite hair loss, then try finasteride.

Very belated, but thank you for the response. Any other opinions? If it really is nothing, I'm sorry for being one of those people who come on here and stress over it. It's a lot easier to be objective about someone else than yourself, after all, and, again, I've never quite been able to visualize the Norwood scale as applied to myself.

One more picture, hair pulled back quite hard in a way that makes it look the most worrisome to me.
