definitely no hair transplant at this stage!
your hair still looks relatively thick. i would try to monitor it for another year and see how it goes. also, the recent developments like SM should be followed closely, and also replicel is due in 2018. try to hold on until then and i think you will profit from these latest developments.
while many others would tell you to use Fin and Minox to maintain what you have, i wouldn't go that route, not yet.

Youre joking right haha. Well I suppose density and hair thickness are different though I guess. And it may be difficult ti monitor because i might just shave my head soon. Cant really pull off anything else due to my receding hairline in combination with the thinning. What is SM and replicel? Tried fin for two weeks but got sides almost instantly so I quit. Fin isnt worth the risk of sides. And im too lazy for minox in all honesty plus its expensive.

textbook MPB. What else could that be? I think a lot of people look for excuses disquised as other possible unlikely causes. Like 95 percent of the time that kind of hair loss is straight up MPB if your a male its almost not worth second guessing. It cant even be almost anything else.
If your not going to use fin the only other option is transplant or as you have been doing just live with it. Someday years from now something like SM might change the game, but until that happens acceptance isnt a bad answer either. Certainly the safest one

Acceptance of going bald is not necessarily the safest answer. There are a large amount of people who have accepted hair loss and have withdrawn from society, or become depressed and suicidal. Yes, it is easy to say, "hey man, you're going bald, just deal with it!" But at such a young age for this to occur to someone this can change their whole outlook on life. If he was older, I think that acceptance may be an appropriate answer, but certainly not at 21 years of age!

Minoxidil expensive? Seriously? Maybe rogaine but kirkland or any other generic brand cost ~30 $ for 3 months supply.
And (if you care about hairs ofc) start using shampoo for hairloss, anything with caffeine, zinc, saw palmetto, dht blocker, panthenol, or something else - dont expect miracles but you probably could keep your hair a little bit longer
