My right temple is more receded and deeper, there is a lot of baby hairs and shorter but thick hairs.

When I was child, we can see on the pictures - my mum covered my right temple.

Unusual/unfortunate to see a complete lack of temple points even as a child. Hair looks pretty decent pulled back, I'm sure you're fine at the moment

Hair looks bad as you are combed on the left side. Below picture of wet hairs and my right temple.

Man, miniaturization can only be confirmed by a thorough physical examination of your head by the derm. Unless the miniaturization is advanced, everyone's opinion will be a mere guess. Nobody can see jackshit of miniaturization just by looking at your pics. Visit a derm asap to calm your anxieties.

You shouldnt worry right now anyways as there is nothing you could do for next 3 years since you are too young for finasteride. Anyway, your hair seem fine right now. Just forget it for 3 years.

I have a problem with this, I check every day how much hair falls out, I think that soon I will be bald, my hair is very important to me. obsessive-compulsive disorder is fast approaching

Gotcha.. I knew you would be one amongst the three options. Even I was at the same stage as you. My hairloss ocd kicked in during the 2 months when I was unemployed. My life became a living hell. I couldn't eat properly,anxiety at every second,used to rage at my parents for nothing,couldn't sleep,used to wake up at 4 and begin searching different hairloss forums. Eventually I couldn't bear all the anxiety and laid it all out to my parents who were very supportive. If you've been bottling all this anxiety inside you and have not confided to anyone,id suggest you lay it out to someone close to you like a very close friend(not just any friend) or your family members. It sounds clichéd but it'll definitely lighten you up. Go to a derm asap and get things cleared. Doubt and vagueness are worse than being told by a derm that you have hairloss. Bury the anxiety ny visiting a derm. No matter how much you evaluate,scrutinize or check your hair,it won't amount to anything fruitful. Indulge yourself in an activity that takes your mind of this hairloss scare. All these things sounded clichéd to me as well,but trust me,it works.
