Hello,
From your history does definitely sound like androgenetic alopecia/ male patterned baldness.
Before resorting to any kind of treatment, lotions or oral medication, proper evaluation is necessary.
Vit deficiency and lifestyle factors can accelerate the condition and worsen it .
A combination approach will definitely help you
Please do a dermatologist consultation for better guidance

Looks like the beginning of androgenetic alopecia which in turn can be worsened by stress. It will improve with topicals in most cases, if it doesn’t we can move on to oral drugs. Diet and lifestyle you anyway are following a healthy one as per your statement.
