Ok so I’m terrified. My worst fear is balding. I have spent the last 3 days panicking endlessly and done nothing else. The thought of no hair makes me extremely depressed. So my hairs always been thin naturally. Both parents have hair and high hairlines like me and my grandparents also had hair. My brother lost his hair but we have different farthers. My hairline has always been very high and made a sort of rounded shape at the top. I am not sure if maybe temples have always been the way they are now but I know they have been similar. Nothing else has changed in my hair. I also have a small widows peak which a barber once shaved off in which I shaved it off for ages until I grew it and my hairline grew down a bit as it used to be pretty odd shaped. I’m not sure if I’m maturing but I just want to keep my hair until I’m at least 40 but 16? I feel like my youth will be gone and I have a bad shaped head. My dads also Algerian so that’s why myna head is shaped long and my hairline like both parents is high.
Receding At 16?! Or Maturing Hairline? Please Help

Kids this days are weird. I was thinking about ladies when i was 16 and not about my hair.
But anyway it looks like your right temple receded deeper than the left one. But that's normal.
I think it's too early for you to jump on Minoxidil and Finasteride. Maybe you should just buy dermaroller and lavender oil and try to see if it works the natural way. Also add Nizoral shampoo to your routine and buy Biotin.

Im under so much stress but i just want to know, do you think its male pattern baldness or is it just mature hairline? I suffer from depression so this is really fueling it right now and has all weekend with exam stress on top. Also should i talk to my GP (doctor).

Usually mature hairline develops between 17 and 29 years old. I don't think it's a male pattern baldness. You still have good thick hair on top. Maybe you are lacking some vitamins and should possibly visit the dermatologist. In your case i would maybe monitor my hairline monthly. Take pictures. But don't look at it everyday or you will get paranoid. Good luck!
Kid I don’t want to stress you out but there is really no such thing as a mature hairline.
Mature hair line is just a polite way of saying slight male pattern baldness.
Get on finasteride (assuming a Doctor says it’s safe for your age) and rogaine.
I started losing my hair at 16. Wish I had done something. Medications are about preventing future lose very rarely will they regrow significant amounts of hair.
Your loss is not very noticeable now but the fact that one temple is receding more than the other is a sign of male pattern baldness. FYI nothing works except fda approved medications rogaine and finasteride
