Thinning And Balding Sides At 18 Y/o?

Recently I've noticed that my hair on the sides is starting to thin. There seems to be no issues anywhere else except this region of my head. I'm 18, so this explains why I'm beginning to worry. Combing my hair back makes it look a lot worse, the problem persists on both sides, however the right side is significantly worse.

It's worth noting that two years ago I used a hair relaxer product, which contains harmful chemicals. I have always wondered if this potentially sparked the sudden thinning. On top of using a hair relaxer, a fewmonths ago I had something similar to a buzz cut. A few months have, I've been hoping the hair grows back, but it doesn't seem as though it is.

Should I see a doctor? Baldness doesn't run in my family, certainly not prematurely either.
In the final photo, my hair is wet.
