Pretty positive I'm starting to recede but wanted to double check here.
I'm only 18 so this is pretty worrying. I looked at a picture from last year and it seems my temples were pretty far back then too, I just wasn't that conscious about it. Pretty sure they haven't always been like this but it's worth mentioning they look far back on my baby photos (but that's probably normal for a baby).
I still have baby hairs growing at the temples though, so not sure if that means anything. I haven't experienced any other hairloss, my hair is still very thick/grows back quickly.
My dad hasn't experienced a receding hairline, neither has my maternal grandfather, but then again my uncle (from my mum's side) has, so that might be an indicator that it's recessive in the genes.
I probably won't talk to a doctor about it just now because I feel like I don't want to be too worried about it, I'm off to university next year and I don't really wanna get on any medication that might affect how I mature - advice is always welcome though!
It's weird though because if you look at me you'd never notice my temples are receding since my hair is always covering them somehow, it's only when I pull my hair back that they become noticeable, e.g:
