Need better pics and from the front but it does look like some temple balding. Norwood 1.5 at the most I suspect. Post more photos. -

Definitely get a prescription for propecia, about 2% of people get sides on 1mg involving lowered libido, but if you lower the dose to 0.25 so a quarter of a propecia tablet it still has 85% efficacy and you'll have a negligible chance of getting side effects. This blocks the hormone that makes your hair fall out. You could also use a good minoxidil like lipogaine on the most recently receeded temple parts to get a bit of regrowth. Using a ketoconazole shampoo twice or three times a week like nizoral or Regenuepure DR will help mildly against stopping the hormones from attacking the follicles, but only make a small difference.
Definitely though try starting with 0.25mg of propecia and use a keto shampoo three times a week. Minoxidil twice a day and a good one like lipogaine will help with regrowth if you want to try that.Comment

If I were you I would DEFINITELY start with 0.25mg of propecia and use those shampoos, which for most people will halt any further loss. Minoxidil is a bit of a pain in the ass but it would help with regrowth, but it isn't as necessary as the propecia.Comment
