Honestly, it just looks like a 2. The normal mature male hair line.
It is not possible to measure density with photos. A doctor needs to evaluate that.
Try this. Print out some copies of the scale and ask some of your friends to circle the one they think looks most like your hair. It's not as good as having a doctor evaluate you but it might help settle your mind.

I will do that. Tracy you honesty have been great and I really am going to take your advice. Thank you so so very much. I really appreciate it.

You could either be going bald, or you could just naturally have a high mature-hairline (and not be going bald). The question is whether or not you have hairs miniturizing behind the mature hairline.

The best way to assess this is for a dermatologist to examine your hair with a microscope.

Hi Alex thanks for replying. I went to the dermatologist I did a scalp biopsy and bloodwork. The bloodwork came back normal no high testostorone levels nothing, she said it was all fine and that we need to wait for the biopsy results. But I'm confused if I have no alopecia wouldn't mpb show high dht levels? What will the biopsy show that the bloodwork didn't?

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by a combination of two things. DHT and hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT. Blood work can tell you how much DHT is running through your system but it does not tell you if you have a lot of hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT.
Females with hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT can suffer from hair loss even though their DHT levels are typically a lot lower than males. Males with hair follicles that are insensitive to DHT typically do not suffer from hair loss even if their DHT levels are sky high.
