It is not uncommon for a male to develop an adult hair line as early as high school. For example; Due to a recent tragedy at a high school, there have been many young males of high school age on TV lately. Of those dozens of teenage males of high school age I've seen on TV this past week, all but one had adult male hair lines. When I go mall walking with my girlfriends I see dozens upon dozens of high school aged teenage males. Almost all of them have adult male hairlines. So no, this is not uncommon - nor is it early.
If you feel you are thinning on the top and it bothers you, you need to see a dermatologist who specializes in treating hair loss. These links tell you what effective options are available to you.

You posted these new pics at the same time I post this response.
First and formost, most of the information you will find on the internet is BS. The American Hair Loss Association is one of only a small few reliable sources of information.
Diffuse thinnng can be treated. Anything you read that says it can't is BS. Talk to a real doctor.
With these new pics you have provided, there may be some thinning going on but you really need to see a specialist.

hey chris when your hairline started to recede, did you notice shedding or you just noticed a receding hairline?
I think this is the main difference between a maturing hairline and MPB, one should check if the hairs that are falling are minituarized/thin etc.

Do people get HT for thinning? Also would getting an HT at such a young age an alright idea?

Oh and also on a side note, i have been going through Huge bouts of stress the past weeks due to some final school assignments. I mean sleeping 3am for days and days in a row and studying and worrying alot as well.

You do not need a hair transplant. Getting a hair transplant without first spending at least a year trying to treat hereditary hair loss is a bad idea. Getting a hair transplant at such a young age is a bad idea.
Stress, lack of sleep and poor nutrition can trigger temporary hair loss.

does this in any way look like temporary hairloss? Because i can definitely say that i've been having alot of stress, lack of sleep etc these days... Is there a way to pinpoint if it's hereditary or not? (I looked at your website but i dont live in any of these countries).

Imo there is one way to tell for sure, just count how many hairs you lose a day and if the hairs are you losing are THIN/SMALLER than the hairs nearby, it's definitely MPB.
But from opinion and from the pictures you show, you do not appear to have MPB.

I'm pretty sure i lose long hairs, but my general hair length's pretty long as well so im not sure. If i look at the towel after i dry my hair after a hot shower, i would count around 10-15 long hairs.

what's scaring me is that when i run my hand through the top of my head, and then i run it through the sides, i can feel a difference..
