Fine hair doesn't rule you out as a candidate.
How old are you? You really aren't in such a bad state at all.

Sorry, I forgot to mention my age
27 in September.
I'm just uncomfortable with my hairline.. I use Dermatch on the top to conceal a little thinning, but my hairline is something that bothers me.

Your hairline looks fine
I n fact you look good all over
You could IMO cut your hair shorter and it would still look good on you

you are not balding whatsoever you have a mature hairline
you have great hair
no surgeon will give you a HT

As for your question in the title, there's really no way of knowing how long you can keep what you've got. Hairloss is difficult to predict, and it's just as hard to tell what the meds will do for you in the long term.
It does look like you have a mature hairline, but it's worth pointing out that every receded hairline does at some point and you could recede further. It does look like you've lost some density at the front, I'd guess that further back things are still solid
.
The positives: Your hair isn't bad at all, and considering that you're 27 and that your hair has remained the same for three years, your hairloss doesn't seem to be aggressive.
My point of view is that your hair looks great as it is and you shouldn't let it impact on your self esteem, but at the same time, if it does bother you a lot (I realise it's hard for the positive comments we're making to have any impact on how you perceive yourself) then I don't think you're actually a bad candidate at all. You have numerous things working in your favour. Your hair looks to be of a good density throughout most of your scalp and, as I mentioned already, your hairloss doesn't seem to be aggressive during the years when Norwood 6 patterns often develop on men who are destined for that degree of loss.
Almost forgot, where do you feel your hair has become thinner over the past three years?

wait until you are 35, and see where your are
if you continue to lose it quickly you will be chasing it which will cost you over 30-50k, in no time.
If you don't do anything it will cost you the amount you are spending on drugs
i have very thin hair as well, the hairline is hard to artistically match, so make sure you go to a great doctor if you do make the bad choice of a HT. My hairline work doesn't match the nature hair especially in the corners of the temple, it is a nightmare to style.
Make sure you go to a doctor that does great hairline and understands to word "LOWER" Most docs like to keep the hairline high cause they don't have to skill.
good luck

Thanks for the response, and I fully agree with you. These positive comments do help. I've posted pictures before of my diffuse thinning ontop, you can clearly see the pattern.. I use thinning concealer for now.. but like I said, my hair hasn't changed really last couple of years.
